Summary

Canada’s banking regulator is considering an AI safety code that could set minimum standards for financial institutions, as more capable AI models and autonomous agents raise concerns about cyberattacks and other risks. Superintendent Peter Routledge said the proposal is at an early stage, with no draft or approved release timeline, though consultation could begin as early as spring. The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions also plans to prioritize hiring specialists in AI and digital technology.
