| Abstract |
Financial institutions are rapidly adopting AI, making Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) essential for using sensitive data responsibly across jurisdictions. This session explores how PETs unlock data value while reducing exposure, supporting compliance, and enabling trusted AI. Drawing on real deployments, it examines what works, the trade-offs, and practical applications such as federated learning for fraud detection, AML collaboration, and cross‑border model training. Participants will gain insight into selecting the right use cases, establishing governance, and applying PETs to support compliant, effective AI adoption. |
