The Brazilian Superintendence of Private Insurance (SUSEP) reported on its participation in Finance of Tomorrow 2025 in Rio de Janeiro, where Superintendent Alessandro Octaviani and Director Júlia Normande Lins spoke on regulatory approaches to financial inclusion and on supervisory responses to artificial intelligence risks in the financial sector. In the panel on inclusion through policy, regulation and digital infrastructure, Octaviani described SUSEP’s review of rules that had created barriers and other initiatives aimed at expanding access to financial services, alongside discussion of challenges and opportunities for Open Finance in Brazil and the need for digital infrastructure that serves vulnerable populations. He also pointed to the insurance protection gap in Brazil and the region and referenced a national insurance access policy, citing Complementary Law No 213/2025 as bringing cooperatives and mutual protection associations into the supervised market. In a separate panel on regulatory supervision of AI risks, Lins referenced SUSEP’s Insurance Innovation Laboratory established via a technical cooperation agreement with the Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics (IMPA), combining SUSEP’s supervisory expertise with IMPA’s work on mathematical modelling and AI-based solutions.
