The EU AI Act came into general application on 2 August 2026 with new transparency requirements, prohibition on non-consensual deepfake content, and regulatory sandbox frameworks while deferring core high-risk AI obligations to 2027 and 2028. This affects Swiss companies with EU market exposure, especially in banking and financial services.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

The EU’s AI transparency and enforcement rules have gone live and push you to update your compliance and data retention policies now. High-risk AI rules are postponed, but regulatory scrutiny and disclosure duties start immediately for fintech founders with EU ties.
