Ahead of the curve: A banker’s podcast – No black boxes allowed: Secure, explainable AI for financial institutions (with Danny Piangerelli)

Changing the way FIs interact with their data

As AI adoption accelerates across financial services, banks and credit unions face a critical challenge: how to innovate without compromising trust, transparency, or regulatory compliance. In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, we sit down with Danny Piangerelli, VP of Engineering at Abrigo, to explore how Abrigo is building and scaling AI responsibly within highly regulated environments.

Listen in to learn how explainability and auditability are embedded into AI-driven solutions, why “human-in-the-loop” design remains essential, and how Abrigo’s agentic framework—including AskAbrigo—is transforming how financial institutions securely interact with their data. Danny also shares how AI is reshaping software development, empowering teams through an “Iron Man” approach, and what fintech leaders should consider as they navigate the balance between innovation and stability.
