Safeguards for Agentic Finance at Runtime (SAFR)

Safeguards for Agentic Finance at Runtime (SAFR) proposes a framework for the governance of AI agents in financial services, defining how agent actions are authorised, how human oversight is activated, and what is recorded at the point of every decision. The paper also discusses implementation considerations for institutions deploying SAFR in their agentic AI systems. SAFR is jointly developed by the financial industry under MAS' BuildFin.ai initiative.
