Frequently asked questions

What are the Financial Sector AI Guidelines?

Guidelines published by Korea's FSC in June 2026 setting out risk-management principles that financial companies are encouraged to apply, voluntarily, when developing and using AI. They consolidate the earlier 2021/2022/2023 financial-sector AI guidance and reflect the Framework Act on Artificial Intelligence (effective January 2026).

What are the seven principles?

Governance, legality, use as an auxiliary means (subsidiarity), reliability, financial stability, good faith, and security — each explained with sub-sections, reference boxes, compliance examples, and a checklist.

Are the Guidelines binding?

No. They are non-binding and intended for voluntary application; a financial company may decide the level of application autonomously in light of its AI use, resources, and the Framework Act on Artificial Intelligence.
