AI Governance for Banking

Ship AI agentsregulators will trust.

KLA gives banks runtime governance infrastructure to deploy AI agents in weeks with audit trails, policy controls, and EU AI Act evidence built in. Give innovation teams speed, and risk committees proof.

What we are

The middle office for your AI agents.

In banking, the front office innovates and the back office records. The middle office manages risk, rules, and reality. KLA sits in the execution path to decide what agents can do, route high-risk actions for human approval, and export verifiable evidence for every audit.

Runtime governance, not just monitoring
Between innovation and compliance

The Regulatory Reality

You can build agents faster than you can approve them.

AI capability is no longer the bottleneck. Governance capacity is. Innovation teams have prototypes; risk teams need decision lineage, policy evidence, integrity verification, and proof logs were not tampered with.

Regulators are watching

The EU AI Act becomes enforceable in August 2026. Non-compliance means fines up to EUR 35M or 7% of global turnover. Banks deploying AI agents without governance infrastructure face existential regulatory risk.

Compliance can't keep pace

Innovation teams ship AI prototypes in weeks. Risk and compliance reviews take months. The result: AI pilots that never reach production, and competitive advantage that bleeds away in committee.

Auditors demand runtime proof

Static documentation will not satisfy modern auditors. They want to see what policy was applied to each AI decision, who approved it, and proof the logs are immutable, not PDFs written after the fact.

August 2026: EU AI Act full enforcement deadline for high-risk AI systems in financial services.
How KLA Works At Runtime

From policy to production-grade evidence.

KLA executes as runtime governance infrastructure, enforcing controls during agent operation and generating regulator-ready evidence by default.

STEP 01

Translate policy into enforceable checkpoints

Your 200-page credit policy PDF becomes a structured, machine-readable policy pack. Every rule becomes a runtime checkpoint that agents must pass before acting.

STEP 02

Agents run with least-privilege tool access

Every agent gets precisely the tool access its role requires. KLA enforces boundaries in real time, preventing unauthorized data access or actions that exceed the agent's mandate.

STEP 03

High-risk steps trigger human approval

When an agent crosses a configured risk threshold, execution pauses for the right human reviewer with full context, evidence, and recommendation.

STEP 04

Evidence Room export in one click

Every run produces a cryptographically verifiable evidence bundle: decision lineage, policy enforcement records, human oversight logs, and integrity manifests.

What You Can Deploy

Go beyond chatbots. Deploy agents that do the heavy lifting.

Because KLA proves your governance posture, teams can ship autonomous workflows deeper in the banking value chain.

Built For Your Team

Every stakeholder gets what they need.

B2B financial services decisions involve multiple reviewers. KLA creates value for each group in the buying and approval process.

Every AI decision, provably governed

Runtime policy enforcement means no AI action executes without passing compliance checkpoints. Not monitoring after the fact, blocking before it happens.

Audit-ready evidence on demand

One-click Evidence Room exports with cryptographic integrity verification: decision lineage, policy enforcement proof, and tamper-evident logs.

Approve AI with confidence

KLA gives you controls and evidence to approve deployments knowing governance is built into infrastructure, not bolted on later.

Proof, Not Promises

What auditors actually ask for.

The Evidence Room produces a complete, cryptographically verifiable evidence bundle for every agent run.

What is in every Evidence Room export:

Decision lineage: every step, every input, every output
Policy enforcement evidence: which rules applied and which passed
Human oversight records: who approved, when, and with what context
Integrity verification: cryptographic proof logs were not altered
Evidence manifest with hash verification and timestamps
