Fed's Waller says AI agents now drive half of FRED data site traffic

Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller used a speech at the St. Louis Fed's FRED Con 2026 to describe how artificial intelligence is reshaping use of the Fed's FRED economic data platform, including a surge in AI-driven traffic and a new connector tool for AI agents. Compliance and data governance teams tracking how central banks manage AI-sourced data access will find the detail on misattribution risk relevant.

  • FRED traffic is presently growing 150 percent a year, with most of that growth attributed to AI and bots.
  • About half of visits to FRED currently come from AI agents retrieving data rather than human visitors.
  • FRED staff have sometimes observed AI agents misattributing data to FRED instead of the original source in testing.
  • The Fed has introduced the FRED MCP Connector, using the Model Context Protocol, to let users link AI agents of their choice to FRED data.
  • Users seeking certain data published by the Federal Reserve Board will soon be routed to FRED and its tools, Waller announced.

HKMA replaces 2019 AI principles with new 'ART' guidance for banks

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority has issued updated supervisory guidance on responsible adoption of artificial intelligence by authorised institutions, superseding its 2019 High-level Principles. Built around three pillars, Accountability, Resilience and Trust, the document sets expectations on governance, use-case inventories, testing, incident response, data and third-party risk, and fair treatment of customers. This segment covers what changed and what firms must now uplift.

  • The guidance supersedes the HKMA's High-level Principles on Artificial Intelligence dated 1 November 2019 and is structured around three pillars forming the acronym ART: Accountability, Resilience and Trust.
  • Boards must approve an AI strategy and risk appetite, assign an owner to each deployed use case, and maintain an up-to-date inventory of approved use cases while implementing controls against 'shadow AI'.
  • Material or higher-risk use cases require independent validation, adversarial testing where appropriate, senior management sign-off, and a built-in kill switch or equivalent for prompt suspension.
  • Firms must ensure data use complies with the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance and use contractual safeguards to stop AI service providers re-using customer data for model training without authorisation.
  • Before offering an AI-powered service, institutions must inform consumers of the use of AI and relevant risks, with existing disclosure and opt-out expectations continuing to apply.

BIS official warns AI could amplify herding and cyber risk in finance

A BIS speech examines how artificial intelligence may reshape price formation, herding behaviour and cyber risk in the financial system, with implications for how central banks and regulators monitor and respond. Relevant for risk, compliance and technology teams assessing AI's systemic footprint and supervisory expectations.

  • Zhang identified three macro-financial implications of AI: faster price formation, herding, and heightened cyber risk.
  • A recent BIS analysis cited in the speech points to growing debt, including private credit, and circular financing among firms within the AI ecosystem.
  • The BIS's 2026 Annual Economic Report calls for better supervisory visibility into AI use to identify model-driven correlated exposures and herding.
  • The Financial Stability Institute's recent work points to strengthening existing cyber resilience frameworks as AI changes the threat environment.
  • Project Spectrum, a BIS Innovation Hub collaboration with the Deutsche Bundesbank and European Central Bank, explored using AI to structure daily product-price data for inflation analysis.

Bank of Finland chief says AI adoption, not invention, will decide Europe's growth

Bank of Finland Governor Olli Rehn used a Citi Macro Forum address in Bangkok to set out the ECB's updated growth outlook, Finland's export and data-centre-driven recovery, and his view that Europe's AI challenge is adoption rather than invention. He also flagged energy-driven inflation risk and three structural tests facing Europe.

  • The ECB revised its euro area growth forecast upwards in September, now projecting growth of slightly less than one per cent this year and around one and a half per cent in each of the following two years.
  • Rehn said euro area inflation remains above target mostly due to higher energy prices but is not broad-based, with wage growth remaining moderate.
  • Finland's electricity production is now 96% fossil-free, which Rehn cited as an example of the region's energy transition.
  • Finland's growth prospects have improved compared with earlier forecasts, supported by stronger exports and a data-centre investment boom drawing demand for clean electricity and digital infrastructure.
  • Rehn identified three strategic tests for Europe: security and defence investment, energy resilience, and productivity growth through innovation and capital markets deepening.

ECB's Lane says Europe's AI surge trails US sharply, flags spillover to bond yields

In dinner remarks at the International AI Summit in Dublin, ECB Executive Board member Philip Lane sets out why the central bank is tracking AI's effect on the euro area economy, citing new ECB survey data on firm and worker adoption alongside comparative figures on US and Asian AI capacity, investment and the knock-on effects for bond markets and financial stability.

  • Firms are set to devote around 10 per cent of total investment to AI this year, and AI-related lending accounts for roughly one quarter of recent credit growth to firms.
  • The ECB's Q4 2025 Survey on the Access to Finance of Enterprises found 64 per cent of firms using AI experimentally or moderately, while only 7 per cent reported significant use.
  • An ECB household survey found 52 per cent of workers now report using AI at work, up from 26 per cent in 2024.
  • The United States hosts 75 per cent of global AI computing capacity against Europe's 5 per cent, and the Stanford AI Index counts 59 notable US models and 35 Chinese models against one each for France and the United Kingdom.
  • Lane says the global AI investment boom is plausibly contributing to rising long-term interest rates, which he describes as a material tightening of euro-area financial conditions.

Singapore to pilot cybersecurity accreditation framework from Q2 2027, releases AI coding handbook

A policy speech that matters for how Singapore will certify cyber talent and govern AI inside security teams. Senior Minister of State Tan Kiat How confirmed two concrete outputs: a Handbook on the Secure Use of AI Coding Assistants, released now, and a Cybersecurity Professional Accreditation Framework set to pilot from the second quarter of 2027. Short on detail, clear on direction.

  • CSA has released a Handbook on the Secure Use of AI Coding Assistants, based on its own security assessments of such tools.
  • A Cybersecurity Professional Accreditation Framework is expected to pilot from the second quarter of 2027, built with bodies such as ISC2.
  • The framework will validate practitioners' demonstrated ability to do the job rather than resumes or certifications alone.
  • The minister cited a campaign where one operator used AI agents to automate over 100 attack projects and steal more than 600,000 payment-card records.

CISA audited its own network tool and found a password hardcoded as 'Malcolm'

The lighter file this week is really a file about self-administration: the body that polices everyone's patching disclosed seven flaws in its own monitoring tool, including a password named after the product and an unauthenticated route to wiping forensic data. Alongside it, two US transparency portals returned access-control screens instead of notices, and HMRC amended the same export process twice in three months. The joke is free; the discipline it rewards is not.

  • CISA advisory ICSA-26-280-01, updated 15 October 2026, lists seven CVEs in CISA's own Malcolm tool, including a passwordSecret hardcoded as "Malcolm".
  • Malcolm fixes split across v26.08.0 and v26.09.0, so an operator who stops at v26.08.0 leaves CVE-2026-107333 and CVE-2026-107362 open.
  • Federal Register pages for an SEC CME Securities Clearing notice dated 13 October and a Treasury information-sharing collection dated 9 October returned access-control screens with no operative text.
  • HMRC amended its export examination-premises approval process on 8 October 2026, three months after an 8 July 2026 revision, and these notices carry the force of law.
  • CISA reports no known public exploitation of the Malcolm flaws to date.

Lagarde Tells ESRB AI Adoption Among Euro Area Banks Nearing Universal

Christine Lagarde's welcome address to the ESRB's tenth annual conference sets AI adoption as the organisation's next system-wide test, 15 years after the board was created in response to the financial crisis. The speech cites adoption and investment survey figures but stops short of outlining specific ESRB monitoring or policy steps, making it a scene-setter rather than an announcement.

  • Nearly nine out of ten significant euro area banks now use generative AI, according to the figures Lagarde cited.
  • Seven out of ten respondents to a recent survey of EU securities market firms expect to increase their AI investment.
  • The speech was delivered as the European Systemic Risk Board marked 15 years since its creation.
  • Lagarde identified AI's rising importance as a test of the ESRB's system-wide supervisory perspective, without detailing specific new measures in the excerpted remarks.

BIS paper warns AI growth could stall as automation thins the consumer demand that funds innovation

A BIS working paper models whether transformative AI can sustain high growth once large-scale automation shifts output toward investment and away from consumption. It matters because the author's calibrated model favours a far more muted outcome than recent transformative estimates, with direct implications for the natural rate of interest that central banks and treasury teams must price.

  • Calibrated model identifies the 'demand bottleneck' scenario, where thinning consumer demand stalls AI progress, as empirically highly plausible.
  • Transformative AI scenario reaches 5.5% growth after two decades; demand bottleneck falls below the pre-AI 2% rate as innovation permanently slows.
  • Paper projects more moderate growth than recent studies such as Korinek et al. (2026) and highlights high uncertainty over the natural rate of interest.

BIS flags circular investment loops among AI firms as source of macro risk and opacity

A BIS Bulletin maps how AI firms invest in one another, and how often those investments overlap with commercial supply relationships between the same parties. For anyone tracking financial-stability signals in the AI build-out, it quantifies the concentration and names the risks central banks are starting to watch.

  • 55.2% of incoming investment in AI firms (2021-2025) came from other AI firms; 28.7% of AI firms' deals by value targeted another AI firm.
  • Of AI-to-AI deals, 16.1% by count and 46.4% by value also involved supply-chain relationships between investor and target.
  • BIS staff frame these loops as economically rational but carrying macroeconomic risk and reduced transparency.
