A research preprint proposes a framework for evaluating AI systems before they are deployed in Nigerian financial services.
The authors argue that generic safety tests can miss local risks. Their SafeAlert evaluation examines fraud-related outputs and the mistaken classification of legitimate bank messages across six commercial models.
The proposed framework addresses Nigerian regulators and continental institutions. These are research findings and recommendations, not adopted regulatory requirements; the paper is an arXiv preprint.
The proposed tests focus attention on local fraud risks and legitimate messages that generic AI evaluations may miss.
