AI Operating Map
Where AI regulation stands in Singapore
No binding general disclosure law. A voluntary governance framework applies to AI generally; only financial services has mandatory, risk-tiered explainability rules.
Updates for Singapore
IMDA Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI
Singapore's Infocomm Media Development Authority unveiled its Model AI Governance Framework for Agentic AI on 22 January 2026. It calls for transparency about AI use with customers and affected parties, accessible feedback and complaints channels, and regular public disclosure of AI governance practices, but it's voluntary, not binding law.
Financial services: mandatory, risk-tiered explainability
The one binding piece is sector-specific: for financial services, overseen by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, explainability requirements are risk-based. High-risk decisions require an individual-specific explanation, medium-risk decisions may use a general explanation, and low-risk decisions just require disclosure that AI is used and its general purpose.
Checked 1 September 2026. This is news, not legal advice, and not something we control, every country makes its own call in its own time. As they do, we adapt the Map so you can stay compliant and report on it. See the full regulatory list for other countries.
Wherever this lands, the question is the same
Do you know which AI-driven decisions in your organisation would be affected, and can you show your work. AI Operating Map's Decision Register already tracks who decided, what data it touches, and whether a person's in the loop, the foundation for answering any version of that question, in any country, whenever it's actually asked.
