One workspace for approved AI

OpenAI, Anthropic and Google models in one familiar interface, chosen by role — so people use AI productively, inside company-approved controls.

Policies and safeguards on every request

Organisational AI usage policies applied automatically; sensitive data masked or blocked, risky requests held for a person, and staff see why.

Auditable by default

Employee activity logged and every decision recorded, subject to the logging and retention your firm configures.

FCA AI governance expectations

How it relates to the FCA’s October 2026 publication.

The FCA’s AI in financial services: good practice and areas for improvement (19 October 2026) shares examples from industry. In its own words: “They do not create new requirements.” There is no standalone FCA AI rulebook; existing rules apply.

Below, each example it describes, and how this module supports a firm’s own approach.

Using approved source material and guardrails to reduce hallucinations, with checks and escalation routes

Dutira: Answers can be limited to approved company documents with citations; requests that need a person are held and routed.

Maintaining auditable records of prompts, outputs, model versions, filters applied and escalation decisions

Dutira: Each decision records the rules applied, the model, the outcome and any approval, in a hash-chained log.

Logging and audit trails of AI interactions to monitor outcomes and deal with complaints

Dutira: Decision log and audit trail, searchable by authorised roles; content access needs a recorded reason.

Human-in-the-loop as a risk-based control, with clear thresholds for intervention

Dutira: Rules decide which activities are allowed, warned, held for approval or blocked, by role and model.

The rules behind it

Existing rules continue to apply when firms use AI. Which apply depends on each firm’s permissions and business.

  • Rule Binding on the firms it applies to
  • Guidance How the FCA expects rules to be met
  • Good practice Illustrative examples; no new requirements

Your responsibility. Your firm decides its AI policy, which models and activities are allowed, and who approves. Dutira applies and records those decisions; it does not decide them. Dutira is not approved or endorsed by the FCA and does not guarantee regulatory compliance.
