In this insightful interview, Sasha Tuel of Weave AI explains how their platform uses AI-powered decision intelligence to revolutionize risk management for financial institutions. Traditional governance models rely on outdated, manual processes that often leave firms vulnerable to emerging risks.

Weave AI’s solution integrates real-time data sources, uncovering hidden risks through techniques like counterfactual detection, which identifies threats based not only on past actions but on inaction and missed signals.

Tuel elaborates on the concept of a risk management flywheel—a continuous, AI-driven loop that assesses, remediates, and adapts as risks evolve. This proactive approach transforms risk management from a defensive necessity into a strategic advantage.

Features like AI-driven benchmarking and real-time control assessments ensure that compliance is not a static checkbox exercise but a living, responsive process that keeps institutions resilient and ahead of regulatory expectations.
