Opinion on Artificial Intelligence Governance and Risk Management


Introduction

The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) has released an opinion on the governance and risk management of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems within the insurance sector. This document, published on August 6, 2025, aims to provide national supervisors with a clear framework for the use and supervision of AI technologies. The opinion emphasizes a risk-based and proportionate approach, balancing the benefits and risks associated with AI systems.


Key Principles and Requirements

EIOPA's opinion outlines several key principles and requirements that are crucial for the governance and risk management of AI systems in the insurance sector. These include transparency, accountability, and the need for robust data management practices. The opinion stresses the importance of ensuring that AI systems are designed and operated in a manner that is ethical and compliant with existing regulations.


Risk-Based Approach

The opinion advocates for a risk-based approach to AI governance, which involves assessing the potential risks and benefits of AI systems and implementing appropriate controls to mitigate those risks. This approach is intended to ensure that AI systems are used responsibly and do not pose undue risks to consumers or the financial system.


Public Consultation and Impact Assessment

Prior to the publication of this opinion, EIOPA conducted a public consultation to gather feedback from stakeholders on its draft proposals. An impact assessment was also carried out to evaluate the potential effects of the proposed governance and risk management framework on the insurance sector.


Conclusion

EIOPA's opinion on AI governance and risk management provides a comprehensive framework for the responsible use of AI technologies in the insurance sector. By emphasizing transparency, accountability, and a risk-based approach, the opinion aims to ensure that AI systems are used in a manner that is both ethical and compliant with regulatory requirements.
