Artificial Intelligence and Automation in Payment Systems Supervision

A five-day programme on technology-enabled payment system supervision, covering supervisory data pipelines, anomaly detection, risk indicators, alert triage, reporting automation, and governance of automated supervisory decisions.

Introduction

The Artificial Intelligence and Automation in Payment Systems Supervision Training Course prepares supervisors and payment oversight teams to use technology in their own work. Payment volumes grow every year, and manual surveillance cannot keep pace with the speed, complexity, and data volume of modern rails. This course explains how artificial intelligence and automation strengthen oversight of payment systems, operators, and participants. It covers data pipelines, anomaly detection, risk indicators, and supervisory dashboards. Furthermore, it addresses model governance, explainability, and auditability of automated decisions. As a result, participants learn to build supervisory capability that is faster, evidence-based, and defensible.

Artificial Intelligence and Automation in Payment Systems Supervision Course Objectives

  • Explain how AI and automation apply to payment systems oversight.
  • Apply the PFMI principles to technology-enabled supervision.
  • Design supervisory data pipelines from payment system reporting.
  • Build anomaly detection models for transaction and settlement monitoring.
  • Develop risk indicators and early warning signals for payment systems.
  • Automate supervisory reporting, alert triage, and case management.
  • Apply network analysis to identify concentration and interconnectedness risk.
  • Assess cyber, operational, and third-party risk in payment infrastructure.
  • Govern automation responsibly with explainability and auditability controls.
  • Design supervisory dashboards and intervention escalation frameworks.

Course Methodology

  • Interactive lectures with payment oversight case studies.
  • Workshops on data pipeline and indicator design.
  • Exercises on anomaly detection and alert triage logic.
