Industries We Serve
Centience delivers continuous governance programs for regulated organizations across multiple industries.
AI Oversight
AI Governance Is Not a Policy. It Is an Operational Obligation.
Regulated organizations that govern AI effectively do not just avoid enforcement risk — they gain a measurable operational advantage. They deploy AI faster, adopt new tools with confidence, and demonstrate to regulators and clients that their AI environment is supervised. The question is not whether to govern AI. It is whether your governance program is technically enforced or just documented.
Centience discovers AI usage across your organization, builds governance frameworks aligned to your regulatory requirements, and monitors compliance continuously — technically, not theoretically.
Governed AI is not a constraint on modernization. It is what makes modernization sustainable.

What Governed AI Enables
AI Adoption Is a Competitive Advantage — When Governance Keeps Pace.
Organizations that build governed AI operations gain a durable operational edge: they can move faster because their governance infrastructure keeps pace with their technology adoption. Every new AI tool, every new workflow, every new vendor enters a framework that is already running.
- Deploy AI tools across your organization with documented oversight from day one
- Accelerate client service workflows without creating undocumented AI exposure
- Onboard AI vendors inside an existing governance framework — not after the fact
- Demonstrate responsible AI use to clients, counterparties, and regulators
- Build institutional confidence at the board and executive level
- Scale AI operations with enforced controls already in place
What Regulators Now Require
AI Is Now an Examination Priority. The Governance Gap Has a Price Tag.
FINRA's 2026 Annual Regulatory Oversight Report introduced a dedicated Generative AI section for the first time — requiring documented governance over AI use cases, model risks, vendor oversight, and AI-enabled communications capture. The SEC's FY2026 examination priorities explicitly flag AI technologies and automated investment tools as primary focus areas for broker-dealers and investment advisers.
Employees are using AI tools across your organization today. Without a governance framework, every AI tool is a potential regulatory liability — and regulators are now asking for documentation of how it is being supervised.
The AI Governance Program
What Centience Delivers
AI Usage Discovery
Identify where AI tools and models are being used across the organization — sanctioned and unsanctioned — to establish visibility before governance. You cannot govern what you cannot see.
AI Policy Development
Develop AI usage policies, acceptable use guidelines, and governance frameworks tailored to your industry's regulatory requirements and your organization's specific AI deployment profile.
AI Risk Assessment
Evaluate AI-related risks including data privacy, model bias, vendor dependency, and regulatory exposure across all AI tools and platforms in your environment.
Ongoing AI Monitoring
Continuous monitoring of AI usage across your organization — so new tools, new use cases, and new vendor AI integrations are captured and governed as they emerge, not discovered during an examination.
Executive and Board Reporting
Structured AI governance reporting for leadership and boards, translating technical AI risk into business-level oversight metrics that regulators and directors can evaluate and act on.
AI Implementation
Deploy approved AI tools inside your governed infrastructure — ensuring every tool is configured, documented, and integrated within your governance framework from day one.
Standards Alignment
Aligned With Leading AI Governance Standards
Our AI governance programs are built on recognized frameworks and standards — ensuring your governance approach meets current and emerging regulatory expectations.
These are not filing cabinet documents. They are the operational foundation we implement and manage against daily.
Regulatory Alignment
- NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF)
- ISO/IEC 42001 — AI Management Systems
- EU AI Act compliance readiness
- SEC guidance on AI disclosures and oversight
- FINRA 2026 GenAI governance expectations
- Industry-specific AI regulatory requirements
Governed AI Is Not a Constraint on Modernization. It Is What Makes Modernization Sustainable.
Our AI governance assessment identifies AI usage across your environment, evaluates governance gaps, and delivers a prioritized roadmap to regulatory readiness — typically within 5 business days.
