AI decisions become risk-bearing services that need inventory, a simple materiality score (impact, autonomy, sensitivity) and assigned owners across model, business and control teams; a loan model scores 3/3/3 and therefore requires governance. Practical controls include business sign-off, ethics review, quarterly bias testing, retrain-as-deploy processes, structured explainability logs per decision and continuous assurance with semi‑annual audits. Accountability rests on answering what happened, why, who owns it and providing reproducible evidence over time.
