Deloitte Launches Risk Clarity to Help Organizations Modernize Risk Management With AI-Powered Intelligence

The AI-powered, human-led solution combines agentic capabilities with Deloitte's deep risk experience to help organizations see risk more clearly, act sooner and scale with confidence

NEW YORK, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Deloitte announced today the launch of Risk Clarity^TM, an AI-native solution that helps organizations accelerate the enterprise risk lifecycle through agentic capabilities. The solution is delivered through Ascend^TM, Deloitte's AI-infused service delivery platform.

Built on Deloitte's deep risk and industry experience, Risk Clarity helps organizations improve clarity, consistency, and coverage across process, risk and controls while reducing manual effort and increasing visibility across the enterprise. This includes AI-driven support for key activities across six modules and more than 25 agents that cover activities such as process mapping and analysis, risk assessment, control optimization, key risk indicators and related reporting, automated testing and issues management.

Because Risk Clarity is delivered through Deloitte's Ascend platform, clients benefit from this single-entry point to Deloitte's industry experience, proprietary data, agentic workflows, and alliance technologies across the delivery lifecycle -- from strategy and design through program management, code generation, data validation, and testing.

"Organizations are under growing pressure to understand risk clearly, act faster, and do so across increasingly complex environments," said Gina Primeaux, Global and US Regulatory, Risk and Forensic leader, Deloitte. "Risk Clarity brings together Deloitte's deep risk experience, AI-powered intelligence, and a modular set of capabilities to help clients modernize how they manage, execute and oversee risk across the enterprise."

From fragmented risk activities to connected, data-driven oversight

Risk Clarity can help organizations move from manual, fragmented risk activities to a more connected, agile and data-driven operating model when leveraged across an enterprise. Risk teams see benefits that can translate into 20 – 30% potential efficiency gains in the first year with measurable improvements to risk posture and increased quality and accuracy at 95% or better. When focusing on preventive control uplift, Risk Clarity powers increases of 25% or more in preventative controls and near real-time risk detection. The modules are designed to unlock human capacity for higher-value work and support more informed decision-making through human-in-the-loop validation.

Organizations have the flexibility to focus on initial priority use cases or scale use over time through Risk Clarity's end-to-end, modular capabilities, including:

• Regulatory Strategy Suite – Translates complex regulations into actionable requirements and defines expected controls to accelerate regulatory change management and reduce compliance risk.
• Process Analyzer and Mapping Suite – Connects process documentation to risk, regulation and controls through AI-led process mapping and analysis to improve transparency and surface gaps earlier and more dynamically.
• RCSA Quality and Automation Suite – Enhances baseline risk assessments with data-driven intelligence by automating risk identification, effectiveness scoring, and generation of control sets while enabling human teams to provide more critical controls analysis.
• Control Review and Enhancement Suite – Strengthening control environments through AI-led review and rationalization and identification of automation opportunities to improve control quality and reduce operational burden.
• Platform Suite for Control Testing – Accelerating controls testing through AI-led narrative generation, design assessment, test script creation, full-population automated testing and key risk indicators to improve quality outcomes and advance the shift toward continuous monitoring.
• Issue Management Automation Suite – Improving issues management through the AI-enabled creation of issues, with a focus on early data-quality detection, rationalization, and thematic root-cause analysis to deepen insight and accelerate resolution.

"Risk Clarity is an end-to-end AI solution that changes the nature of risk work," said Sara Oropesa, Risk and Control Transformation leader, Deloitte & Touche LLP. "It can help clients move from labor-intensive documentation and review toward more meaningful analysis, better risk insights, and faster action — while still keeping human judgment at the center of risk decisions."

Risk Clarity is built to work within organizations' existing risk environments and support a more sustainable, AI-enabled model for risk management by combining Deloitte's trusted risk experience with more accurate, explainable, and defensible outputs and practical enterprise adoption. The tool also aligns to Deloitte's Trustworthy AI^TM governance framework and includes guardian agents to monitor agentic outputs in real time. It is part of Deloitte's broader commitment to help organizations transform risk management with advanced technology, deep industry knowledge, and a focus on trustworthy outcomes.
