About the Session
Most finance organizations are building AI agents faster than they are governing them. For CFOs, this creates a new class of financial, operational and accountability risks that cannot be managed with traditional controls alone. This session provides a practical, 101-level introduction to AI agent governance for CFOs and finance leaders who need a clear starting point, not a technical deep dive. It explains the foundational concepts, vocabulary and governance building blocks required to scale AI agents responsibly, including how to establish policies, monitoring practices, escalation paths and human oversight. The session also explores how finance teams can maintain accountability through effective collaboration between human analysts and AI agents. Attendees do not need prior AI or technical experience. They will leave with a practical framework for understanding where AI agent risks arise, how to organize governance responsibilities and what first steps finance leaders can take now to govern AI agents safely before scale makes the risks harder to unwind.
