Why NEUBoard Exists
AI has become a board-level accountability issue.
Directors are now expected to oversee AI risk, usage, and impact, even when systems are delegated to management. Most AI failures escalate not because the technology breaks, but because governance was unclear.
Why This Quarter Matters
The EU AI Act is in enforcement. The SEC expects material AI risk disclosure. U.S. states are advancing AI-specific legislation. Courts are already applying negligence, fiduciary duty, and discrimination law to AI outcomes.
You do not need new laws to face new liability. The governance expectations are here. The question is whether your board can demonstrate it was paying attention.
What NEUBoard Does
- Governance clarity: Boards leave with a structured understanding of where AI creates risk, who owns it, and what controls are in place.
- The right questions: Directors know exactly what to ask management about AI — and how to evaluate the answers.
- Defensible oversight: Boards can demonstrate structured AI governance to regulators, investors, and courts.
A Framework for Board-Level AI Oversight
The NEUBoard Fiduciary AI Scorecard maps AI governance across five dimensions that matter to boards:
- AI Inventory & Materiality Where is AI deployed, and which applications create material risk?
- Risk Ownership & Controls Who owns the risks, and do controls match the impact?
- Vendor & Third-Party Governance What are you buying, from whom, and what risks does that create?
- Monitoring, Escalation & Incident Response How do you detect problems before they create external harm?
- Board Reporting & Documentation Can you demonstrate governance to external scrutiny?
For each dimension, we help boards answer: What is management doing? How do we know it is working? What would indicate a failure?
Who It's For
- Boards of private and PE-backed companies
- Family offices overseeing operating businesses
- Board committees responsible for risk, audit, or strategy
How Engagements Typically Work
- 90-minute closed-door board or committee briefings
- Half-day AI risk and oversight workshops
- Board AI readiness assessments with written findings
