Case Study: Banco do Brasil achieves transparent, compliant AI governance at scale with IBM watsonx.governance

Banco do Brasil leads in innovation with responsible AI and ethical oversight

Banco do Brasil, one of Latin America’s oldest and largest banks, needed a way to manage the rapid expansion of AI while meeting strict regulatory, ethical, and public-trust requirements. As a public financial institution, it faced growing complexity around accountability, transparency, and compliance as AI became more central to banking operations.

IBM, working alongside EY, helped Banco do Brasil implement a unified AI governance model using IBM watsonx.governance. The solution brought automated oversight, real-time monitoring, explainability, traceability, and continuous model evaluation across the AI lifecycle, helping reduce manual effort and speed deployment while improving risk management, performance tracking, and trust in AI-based decisions.
