FSCA & TCF Aligned AI Solutions for Financial Services
Establish trust in automated financial decisions. We build and audit FSCA-compliant AI systems that deliver transparent, fair, and documented customer outcomes.
Overview
South Africa's Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) expects financial institutions to maintain fair market conduct. When adopting automated credit scoring, claims routing, or advisory chatbots, systems must align with the six Treating Customers Fairly (TCF) outcomes.
Mobiloitte South Africa provides specialized engineering to operationalize TCF standards in financial AI systems. We embed bias testing, model explainability metrics, and robust audit trails directly into credit and underwriting engines.
Conduct & Compliance Risks in Financial AI
Automating decisions in banking and insurance without proper safeguards creates compliance exposures. We address:
Our Capabilities
Bias Detection & Re-weighting
Data-profiling tools that identify proxy variables and apply algorithmic adjustments to prevent model bias.
Model Explainability Dashboards
Interactive compliance consoles showing feature importance (SHAP/LIME) and decision pathways for internal reviews.
Conduct-Audit Logging
Immutable logs storing model configurations, inputs, predictions, and human approvals for audit readiness.
Conversational Advice Controls
Intent validation frameworks for financial chatbots, preventing dynamic answers from crossing into advisory boundaries.
Underwriting & Credit Validation
Stress-testing automated lending and pricing systems against historical customer data to evaluate fairness.
TCF Outcome Mapping
Configuring system triggers that align with specific customer outcomes, ensuring suitability and transparency.
Expected Outcomes
Fostering Responsible Finance
Fairness and accuracy go hand in hand. We build validation engines that ensure your pricing and credit algorithms operate within defined compliance boundaries without sacrificing prediction strength.
Translating Conduct Policies into Code
How we align your financial systems with TCF standards:
Discovery
Map target financial decisions and model paths.
Dataset Audit
Scan training inputs for proxy bias fields.
TCF Mapping
Map code execution paths to fair outcomes.
XAI Integration
Deploy explainability widgets and decision logging.
Bias Testing
Stress test models on historical cohorts.
Monitoring
Configure tracking alerts for decision drift.
Regional Conduct Guidelines
We focus on local financial realities, aligning credit and advisory engines to the expectations of the FSCA and South African Reserve Bank (SARB).

Common questions about FSCA & TCF compliance in financial algorithms.
What is FSCA and TCF compliance in AI?+
The Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) demands strict market conduct. In AI, this means models (like automated underwriting or advice engines) must adhere to Treating Customers Fairly (TCF) guidelines, ensuring fair, non-biased, and explainable outcomes.
How do you prevent bias in underwriting models?+
We test dataset distributions and apply bias-mitigation code (pre-processing data re-weighting and post-processing decision adjustment) to verify models don't discriminate based on demographic attributes.
Are AI recommendations auditable for compliance teams?+
Yes, we build compliance consoles showing input factors, feature weightings, decision logs, and explainability metrics for every advice or recommendation generated.
Can these guidelines apply to conversational advice assistants?+
Absolutely. Conversational agents offering product info or advice are monitored with intent-auditing layers to prevent mis-selling and ensure accurate product disclosure.
How long does a conduct alignment review take?+
Typically, conduct alignment reviews take between 3 to 6 weeks, including data profiling, model output stress testing, and audit-trail design.
