Operationalizing Responsible AI & Regulatory Compliance for Finance

You have the AI models. Do you have the license to operate?

As Generative AI moves from sandbox to production, financial institutions face a critical challenge: proving to regulators (OSFI, NIST, EU AI Act) that their AI is safe, fair, and compliant.

Join the FINOS AI Governance community for a dual-track session: an exclusive preview of the new AIGF Leader Training curriculum, followed by a hands-on workshop to co-create the industry standard for AI Reference Architectures and Evaluation Frameworks.

Modernizing Financial Compute: From Legacy Schedulers to Cloud-Native Scale

Your on-prem grid is a bottleneck. It’s time to break the capacity ceiling.

For decades, financial institutions have been constrained by fixed-capacity compute grids - optimizing every millisecond of a static cluster to run overnight risk batches (VaR, CVA) or intraday pricing.

Join the High-Performance Compute experts from AWS to dismantle the old way of thinking. Learn how to architect a cloud-native High-Throughput Compute (HTC) grid that scales infinitely, eliminates the "queue," and processes massive volumes of tasks with low latency using the open source HTC-Grid project.

Standardizing the Trade Lifecycle for Capital Markets & Post-Trade Operations

Stop reconciling the same trade five times across five different systems.

For decades, the financial industry has struggled with a "Tower of Babel" problem: every bank, counterparty, and regulator defines a "Trade" or an "Event" differently. The result? Billions of dollars wasted on manual reconciliation, broken regulatory reports, and fragile integration.

Join TradeHeader, a leading FINOS member and specialist in CDM implementation, for a hands-on technical workshop that moves beyond theory. You will write code to implement the open standard that is unifying the post-trade stack for derivatives, repo, and securities lending.

Standardizing Multi-Cloud Security & Compliance for Financial Services

Stop mapping security controls manually. Start automating your cloud compliance.

As Canadian financial institutions accelerate their move to the cloud, the "Compliance Tax" - the time spent mapping internal risk policies to AWS, Azure, and GCP configurations - has become a bottleneck to innovation.

Join the lead architects from RBC and Sonatype for a technical deep dive on automating this process using the open source Common Cloud Controls (CCC) standard.

Architecting the Next Generation of Open Source Financial Workflows

The future of financial orchestration isn't just about moving data—it's about empowering developers.

Join us for a hands-on Fluxnova Workshop focused on enhancing the Developer Experience and expanding our sample workflows repository. This collaborative session is designed for developers, engineers, and workflow enthusiasts who want to contribute to the Fluxnova ecosystem.

Securing the Bridge Between Internal Banking Networks and Public Open Source

Stop fighting the corporate firewall. Start using GitProxy.

For developers in regulated banking, pushing to external code repositories such as GitHub is a problem:  it represents a vector by which private or secret organisational information could be accidentally or deliberately exfiltrated.   So - how can you commit to Open Source projects from behind the firewall?

GitProxy is the solution. Join Elspeth Minty and Thomas Cooper from RBC to implement the "Smart Airlock" that sanitizes the connection between your internal network and public open source—giving developers the access they need while satisfying the strict controls InfoSec demands.

Automating Governance & Compliance in the Software Supply Chain

Stop trading velocity for compliance. You can have both.

For most financial institutions, "Audit Season" means weeks of manual screenshot gathering, halted deployments, and friction between Engineering and Risk.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Join George Kichukov (GitLab) and Michael Long (Kosli) to define the new industry standard for "Controls as Code." Learn how to map your internal policies to a unified framework that satisfies regulators (OSFI, NIST) while letting your developers deploy continuously.

For the first time the Open Source in Finance Forum is coming to Canada. Unlike our larger global summits, OSFF Toronto is designed as an exclusive, high-impact event for approximately 250 attendees.

The Open Source in Finance Forum returns to London, bringing together leaders and practitioners from across financial services and technology. As one of our flagship global gatherings, OSFF London offers a full-scale program of keynotes, panels, and technical sessions focused on open source in finance.

The Open Source in Finance Forum returns to New York, gathering industry leaders and practitioners to explore the role of open source across financial services. As a cornerstone event in our global series, OSFF New York features a robust program of keynotes, panels, and technical deep dives.
