The problem
Shadow AI is the hidden compliance crisis in financial services
Every paste into an unapproved chatbot is client data leaving the building — invisible, unlogged, and indefensible in front of a regulator.
No visibility
Firms have zero insight into which AI tools employees use — or what data is being pasted into them, from the trading floor to the back office.
Regulatory exposure
Shadow AI cuts across GDPR, the EU AI Act, SEC and FINRA rules. Enforcement has begun, and penalties are no longer hypothetical.
No audit trail
Without logs or evidence, compliance teams cannot answer an audit, a board question, or a regulator's enquiry about AI use.

Why now
The regulatory clock is already ticking
-
2024
EU AI Act in force
The world's first binding AI law. High-risk AI in financial services must be governed and fully auditable.
-
2025
Enforcement begins
Fines up to €15M or 3% of global turnover for high-risk non-compliance — €35M or 7% for prohibited AI.
-
2026
High-risk rules apply
In-scope firms must demonstrate AI governance. Shadow AI with no audit trail is a direct violation.
-
2026+
SEC & FINRA follow
US regulators accelerate AI oversight for broker-dealers and investment advisers.
Notivium is built for this exact inflection point.
