G20 Warns AI Could Trigger Cross-Border Financial Crisis

The G20’s global watchdog has issued a stark warning: new artificial intelligence models pose a growing and direct threat to worldwide financial stability. In a statement, the head of the G20’s Financial Stability Board (FSB) said that disruptions caused by AI would not be contained by national borders. The FSB, which coordinates financial rules for the world’s largest economies, stressed that ensuring the safe release of new AI models must become a top priority for regulators. The warning signals that the rapid adoption of AI in banking, trading, and risk management could create sudden, unpredictable failures that spread quickly across global markets.
