Does a compliance manager need to be an AI Expert Now?
Time & date:
18 November 2025 | 12:10-13:10 (GMT)
Audience:
Senior GPs
Synopsis:
AI is rapidly transforming private markets – from fund administration to portfolio management. But as these tools become more embedded in daily operations, compliance managers face a new challenge: how much do they need to understand the technology driving decisions around risk, reporting, and governance?
The upside?
AI can automate manual tasks, improve data accuracy, and streamline reporting – freeing up time for strategic oversight.
The challenge?
AI tools can be complex, opaque, and hard to audit. Non-technical teams may struggle to assess their reliability and integrating them into existing workflows isn’t always seamless.
This interactive session will explore:
- How AI is changing the compliance function
- What skills compliance managers actually need
- The trade-offs between speed, control, and transparency
- How to stay ahead without getting overwhelmed by tech
