Event Recap

AI is no longer just assisting - it's deciding, adapting, and even acting autonomously. As adoption scales, how can organisations stay secure, compliant, and in control?

In a closed-door session on August 28, SGListCos partnered with KPMG Singapore and the AI Verify Foundation to explore the real-world challenges of operationalising AI governance while keeping pace with innovation.

Key Takeaways:

Frameworks are only the beginning

Gerry Chng noted that frameworks and policies are easy to implement today, but technical controls are still a fragmented space.

The four key areas that will address many associated risks are: API Security, Machine Identities, Data Security and AI Security Posture Management.

Predictability builds trust

Shameek Kundu emphasised that for AI to scale, it must be "boringly predictable". A lack of trust, whether among individuals or organisations, remains a key barrier.

Reliable, well-tested systems are essential to building confidence, especially as use cases expand from support functions to high-stakes decision-making.

From the panel:

Many companies are deploying AI, but few have a clear AI risk or compliance framework in place. Arran Mulvaney posed a vital question: Are we governing the data behind our models effectively enough?

Audience concerns included cybersecurity, data leakage, business disruption, and loss of human control.

Final Message

Start small, act early.

Building cross-functional alignment is key to ensuring AI is safe, ethical, and strategically sound.

As AI becomes integral to enterprise operations, SGListCos is committed to continuing the conversation and helping listed companies navigate this shift with clarity, accountability, and long-term value.
