Webinar The Governance Imperative Oct 2026 (2)

Webinar:

You are invited to our next webinar:

AI in finance. The governance imperative.

Five questions to ask of every AI tool touching your financial data.

Confidence isn’t a control.

96% of CFOs say they are confident in their organisation’s AI governance.¹ Yet 66% of office professionals at large organisations have used AI tools at work they believed weren’t permitted.²

Both can’t be right, and auditors are starting to ask which one is.

Join Chris Reed, Head of Product at FISCAL Technologies, for a 40-minute CPD webinar on governing AI in finance, using the controls your team already runs.

AI in finance. The governance imperative.

You’ll learn:

  • Why shadow AI is more common in finance teams than most leaders think, and why banning it doesn’t fix it.
  • Five questions to ask of any AI tool that touches your financial data.
  • How to match human oversight to the consequence of getting it wrong, including a UK rule change that may affect suppliers who are sole traders.
  • What an auditor will expect to see when they ask how an AI decision was made.
  • A 90-day plan with five practical actions, consistent with recognised frameworks such as ISO/IEC 42001.

You’ll also leave with two practical templates, an AI map and a five-question scorecard, which you can complete after the session and keep as your CPD record.

"At first I was a little unsure about FISCAL’s claim that we would discover duplicates in a very short space of time. But I have to say, on the very first run we found duplicates and errors that would never have been highlighted by our current system of checks."

Payments Manager, Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust

"We are extremely pleased with the value we get from the software. And there is no way I would take the risk of making duplicate payments now that we have FISCAL’s software in place. Why should I?"

 

Head of Financial Operations, London and Quadrant

"Across the areas of duplicate payment prevention, time savings and process improvements we have seen an excellent return on investment and are confident that FISCAL will continue protecting Allscripts’ working capital into the future."
