Watch a Replay of “Governing AI in Finance: Building the Trust That Unlocks Real Productivity”
Nearly 80% of finance professionals restrict AI autonomy because they have no structured basis for trusting its outputs. Finance teams can’t use what they can’t validate, leaving two bad options: trust blindly and risk accuracy, or verify everything and lose the productivity gains.
In this webinar, Mark McDonald from Finance Next introduces an AI governance framework that replaces the review-everything default with a structured, evidence-based method for calibrating oversight to actual task risk. Trust stops being a judgment call and starts being a documented record.
You’ll learn:
- Why trust is the number one barrier to AI productivity in finance.
- Why AI fits neither your people nor your systems governance models–and how to fix it.
- How to move from supervised to autonomous execution using documented evidence.
- How and where to start a trust-building program without slowing adoption.
Presenter:
- Mark McDonald, Finance Next, AI and Finance Strategist
This webinar initially aired on May 19, 2026.
