SG connects over 80 FIs under PathFin.ai initiative

It is also developing an AI risk management handbook under Project MindForge, due later this year.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore’s (MAS) PathFin.ai programme has brought over 80 financial institutions (FIs) to share their experiences and strategies in using artificial intelligence (AI).

The PathFin.ai initiative features an initial set of successful use cases, curated by industry participants in key areas like sales and marketing, customer operations, risk management, and engineering and technology.

It also features learnings from pathfinder FIs that have successfully deployed AI in these areas.

“MAS will collaborate with our industry partners to progressively enhance the knowledge hub with more peer-validated use cases, resources and solutions,” said Chee Hong Tat, Minister for National Development and MAS deputy chairman.

MAS is also developing an AI risk management handbook under Project MindForge, expected to be released later this year.

The handbook will serve as a practical guide to help financial institutions apply upcoming supervisory guidelines and ensure AI is deployed responsibly.

Chee also said Singapore’s financial sector must adopt AI more efficiently and responsibly to stay competitive and continue generating quality jobs for locals.

He added that continuous improvement in the AI ecosystem and workforce readiness will be key.

“The first is to continuously upgrade our AI ecosystem to promote knowledge exchange and encourage innovation,” Chee said. “Amongst others, this encompasses updating our rules to be relevant in today’s context.”

Chee encouraged financial institutions to take an active role in the initiative, urging them to “sign up, contribute, learn and grow as a community.”

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
