This article covers: what AI agents can and cannot do reliably, the governance risks of agentic AI in enterprise contexts, how to design human-in-the-loop governance for AI agents, regulatory considerations under SDAIA and NCA frameworks, and practical use cases for AI agents in portfolio management, performance reporting, and project oversight.
