Redwood Shores, CA – Leading analyst firm Chartis Research, specializing in the global risk technology market, has named 4CRisk.ai to the AI Governance Best of Breed Quadrant, spotlighting companies that financial institutions should consider as they automate their AI Model Governance programs.  


Chartis Research defines AI Model Governance as solutions that support the policies, procedures and ethical considerations required to implement and oversee the development, deployment, maintenance, and ongoing monitoring of AI models and systems.  Solutions provide features to address transparency, reliability and accountability and enable effective data quality and handling, and model explainability.  Features also assist in mitigating specific cybersecurity risks related to bias, privacy breaches, and other cybersecurity threats.

Chartis Research defines Best of Breed Solutions as providers that have best-in-class point solutions and the ability to capture significant market share in their chosen markets.  They are often distinguished by a growing client base, superior sales and marketing execution, and a clear strategy for sustainable, profitable growth. High performers also have a demonstrable track record of R&D investment, together with specific product or ‘go-to-market’ capabilities needed to deliver a competitive advantage.  Critically, this focused functionality will often see Best-of-Breed providers packaged together as part of a comprehensive enterprise risk technology architecture, co-existing with other solutions.

‘4CRisk is recognized as a Best-of-Breed solution for AI Model Governance, reflecting the innovative integration of its AI governance copilot ARIA, and its expertise in specialized language models (SLMs) trained on risk/compliance content,’ said Michael Versace, Research Director at Chartis Research. ‘4CRisk’s AI solutions are well-suited to mid to large-scale organizations with increasingly complex, multi-jurisdictional regulatory obligations and proprietary and third-party AI deployments.’
Since inception, 4CRisk has focused on responsible and trustworthy AI for Compliance and Risk professionals.  We are delighted that Chartis Research has recognized our commitment and ranked 4CRisk as a Best of Breed provider for AI Governance in this inaugural report. The 4CRisk platform is purpose-built AI to accelerate compliance effectiveness and design of policies and controls for any business vertical that operates locally or globally.”  - Venky Yerrapotu, CEO and Co-Founder, 4CRisk.ai.
