Clearwater Survey Finds Asset Managers Expect Faster AI Use in Risk Management
Private-sector AI risk management survey surfaces data-quality-over-spending framing that echoes APS AI governance principles, but is not directly actionable.
Key points
- Clearwater Analytics surveyed 178 senior investment leaders on GenAI adoption and risk management plans.
- Survey finds data quality and governance foundations matter more than AI spending alone for outcomes.
- Limited direct relevance to APS - findings are private-sector investment industry context, not government.

Clearwater Analytics' 2026 Global GenAI Report surveyed 178 senior leaders across asset managers, insurance firms, hedge funds, and private-credit managers. Key reported findings include 73% expecting faster AI integration in risk management over the next three years, 93% viewing AI-agent integration as important or critical, and over 80% anticipating AI spending increases of at least 50% in the next 12 months. The report's central framing - that data quality and governance foundations, not spending alone, determine results - mirrors themes familiar in APS AI governance discussions, though the context is private financial services rather than government.
