The UK FCA will not write new AI rules. It applies existing frameworks to AI use. Consumer Duty and SM&CR already cover AI deployments. Firms must monitor AI outcomes and keep them auditable. A senior manager must be accountable for each model. Fewer than half of UK firms have formal AI risk frameworks. 56% of UK firms rate their AI knowledge as beginner. Weak monitoring exposes firms to existing obligations. Governance must start before deployment, not after a review.
