AI governance · regulated financial firms

Close the gap before it closes you.

Your firm is already using AI. Governance is how you prove you control it — measured against NIST, anchored to the FINRA and SEC rules you already answer to.

Find | Fix | ProveGovernance you can prove

The gap is widening

Every new AI tool your people adopt widens the distance between use and control.

EXTENT OF USETIME →AI usageGovernanceEXPOSURE

The space between what your people do using AI and
what you can prove you control is where exposure lives.

Illustrative, not measured.

What you actually need to know

AI governance, in five plain questions

WHY

Regulators already hold you accountable for how your firm uses AI.

Not a future risk — a current obligation under rules you answer to today.

WHAT

Oversight of how AI gets adopted and used — not the tools themselves.

Policy, accountability, and evidence that someone is watching.

WHEN

Before an examiner, auditor, or incident asks the question for you.

Usage always runs ahead of policy — the gap is where exposure lives.

HOW

One structured assessment against recognized NIST frameworks.

Findings, gaps, and a prioritized remediation path — in plain business terms.

WHO

Your leadership owns it. We facilitate. Your auditors and regulators receive it.

A board-grade package that speaks to every audience at the table.

Free · online · no login

See your exposure in minutes.

Answer a few questions about how your firm uses AI. The Regulatory Exposure Profiler shows which rules put you on the hook — before you talk to anyone.

No account, nothing stored.

The difference · no one else does this

We don't hand you a report. We hand you a program.

Most firms get a slide deck that dies on a shelf. You get a live remediation program — ported straight into your own system of record, where your team already assigns, tracks, and burns work down.

Your assessment → a remediation backlog

Maintain an inventory of AI systems & vendors

Gap: no central register; tools adopted team by team. Fix: a living inventory with an owner and data classification per system.

NIST CSF 2.0 · PROTECT

Retain AI-assisted communications as books & records

Gap: AI-drafted client messages not captured for retention. Fix: route AI outputs through the archive and test retrieval.

SEC 17a-4 — RecordkeepingMaturity L1 → L3Evidence: retention test log

Delivered where you already work — Azure DevOps · Jira · Microsoft Planner · or a tracked sheet. Not another tool to log into.

Dies on a shelf. Nothing gets assigned, nothing gets fixed.

Another silo your lean team has to log into and maintain.

Who it's for

Built for lean compliance teams in regulated finance.

You're a fit if you're a…

  • RIA or independent broker-dealer
  • Small lender or mortgage shop
  • Fintech under FINRA / SEC (or state / NYDFS)
  • Firm already using AI in client-facing or decisioning work
  • 1–5 person compliance function with no AI-governance program

…and something just changed:

  • An exam notice or deficiency letter landed
  • New FINRA / SEC guidance on AI dropped
  • A new AI tool just went live in production
  • An investor or enterprise client sent a due-diligence questionnaire

For CPAs, auditors & advisors

Your clients are adopting AI. Be the one with the answer.

When a client's regulator asks who governs their AI, "let me bring in my partner" beats a blank look. One warm introduction — we run the structured assessment, you stay the trusted advisor, your client gets a board-grade package off the introduction you made.

Fractional CIO / COO · vCISO · Boanta Consulting LLC

Twenty-five years across regulated finance, and a decade running my own practice. I speak business first and stay product-agnostic — I sell no software, so my only stake is what actually fits your firm and holds up under an exam.

AI governance is a trust-and-accountability sale. That's why my name is on it: I'm accountable for the outcome, not just the deck.
