Abstract: Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is rapidly reshaping the financial services sector by introducing new avenues for innovation, efficiency, and profitability. GenAI systems, including models like “generative adversarial networks”(GANs) and “transformers”, can autonomously generate content such as synthetic data, trading strategies, and fraud detection insights, transforming traditional financial operations. However, these advancements come with new challenges, particularly in ensuring that GenAI is deployed ethically, securely, and in compliance with evolving regulatory frameworks. Current financial regulations, such as those governing anti-money laundering (AML), market integrity, financial consumer protection, among others, were originally designed for human-driven processes and do not fully address the complexities introduced by AI systems. While some jurisdictions, such as the E.U., Singapore, the U.S., and China, have launched AI regulatory initiatives, frameworks specifically tailored to the financial services industry are still a work in progress. This article seeks to provide an overview of these differing regulatory landscapes while raising awareness of the gaps that financial institutions and regulators should address to bridge in the responsible adoption of GenAI in the financial services sector.
