Each row quotes one record from SEC EDGAR filings dataset; the “On this site” link opens the bank's own page or sub-page with every source. Banks absent from the table have nothing matching on the record this site holds.

How is this ranked?

Data: the SEC filings dataset (data/sec/quotes.jsonl): verbatim AI statements from 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K and DEF 14A filings of the banks' holding companies, each with its EDGAR link, filing date, section and topic.

Rule: Quotes classified as AI regulation (new laws, supervisory expectations, compliance cost). Score = such quotes; ties by distinct filings, then the newest filing.

Counts: 62 of 141 profiled banks qualify; the table shows the top 40; 60 distinct sources cited in the table. Data checked 2026-10-31; ranking template updated 2026-10-30.

What are the caveats?

The dataset holds the AI passages the extractor found in filings since January 2024; a bank with few quotes may say more in passages not captured. Quotes are verbatim; the one-line claim is the extractor's summary and links the EDGAR text.

Banks without a US SEC filer (most non-US groups, private and mutual banks) have no quotes and are absent.

Banks absent from the table have nothing matching on the record this site holds, which is not evidence that they do nothing. Each row links the bank's own page, where every entry carries its sources.

Which bank ranks first?

BNY (Bank of New York Mellon) leads with 7 filing quotes: BNY warns that evolving AI legal and regulatory frameworks could require changes to its AI implementation and raise compliance costs. (Form 10-K, risk factors, filed Feb 25, 2026). Associated is second with 7.

How many large banks discuss AI regulation in SEC filings?

62 of the 141 profiled banks (120 US, 21 non-US groups); the table shows the top 40. Among those listed, 40 are US banks and 0 non-US groups.

What counts, and what does not?

Quotes classified as AI regulation (new laws, supervisory expectations, compliance cost). Score = such quotes; ties by distinct filings, then the newest filing. Source: the SEC filings dataset (data/sec/quotes.jsonl): verbatim AI statements from 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K and DEF 14A filings of the banks' holding companies, each with its EDGAR link, filing date, section and topic.

Is this a measure of capability?

No. Every row is a sourced fact on the public record: what the bank, a regulator, a filing or an independent outlet has put on the record. The page does not rate how well anything works.

When was this checked, and how often does it update?

The data behind the table was last checked on 2026-10-31 (SEC EDGAR filings dataset). The page recomputes whenever that dataset changes and is republished with the site; it is never edited by hand.
