What happened
A survey of over 3,200 senior executives across eight countries in Europe and the Middle East found that 80% of those in Europe and the Middle East reported an AI-related incident reaching their board or C-suite in the past year. While 75% of respondents expect AI agents to have some level of decision autonomy by 2027, only 37% report having governance designed to scale with agentic AI deployment.

Why it matters
When the pace of AI deployment outstrips governance readiness, 56% of executives surveyed reported continuing operations within agreed risk limits, while only 33% delayed deployment. Furthermore, only 37% of surveyed organizations have a formal, board-reviewed quantification of financial risks created by gaps in their AI governance.
