N‑able, in collaboration with Inventic and EGUARDIAN, hosted a CxO Executive Briefing on Agentic AI for Intelligent and Resilient Financial Institutions
N‑able, in collaboration with Inventic and EGUARDIAN, hosted an exclusive “CxO Executive Briefing on Agentic AI for Intelligent & Resilient Financial Institutions” on 17 February 2026 at Cinnamon Life, Colombo. The closed‑door session brought together CEOs, CxOs, COOs, and business heads responsible for institutional risk, compliance, and operational resilience to discuss how emerging technologies are reshaping financial‑institution operating models.
The briefing focused on Agentic AI, a new class of AI systems capable of autonomous action, contextual reasoning, and full auditability, and how it is being applied across critical banking control functions, including risk and compliance, fraud management, and KYC and onboarding.
“Financial institutions are reaching a point where static, rules-based AI can no longer support both growth and regulatory expectations,” said Nitin Purwar, Co-Founder & Director, Inventic. “This briefing demonstrated how Agentic AI embeds intelligence directly into business decision-making, enabling banks to onboard customers faster, approve more low-risk customers, and assist in fraud and compliance journeys, while remaining fully explainable, auditable, and regulator-ready.”
As financial institutions move deeper into digital‑first operating models, the focus has shifted from simply adopting AI to governing it responsibly at scale. “Agentic AI represents a fundamental shift in how intelligence is operationalised across risk, compliance, and decision-making. Through this partnership, we are helping banks move from fragmented controls to integrated, explainable, and regulator-aligned compliance posture that is built for resilience, not just efficiency,” said Shirantha Herath, CEO, N‑able.
From a risk and governance standpoint, the shift toward agentic systems reflects growing pressure on compliance teams to deliver consistent and transparent outcomes at scale. Mafaz Fahrid, CEO, EGUARDIAN, noted that institutions must now balance efficiency with supervisory confidence. “Agentic AI allows banks to reduce false positives, automate investigations, and maintain end-to-end risk visibility without compromising control or accountability,” he said.
The executive session combined live demonstrations, real‑world insights, and board‑level perspectives, followed by a private dinner and networking opportunity.
