COSO releases roadmap on internal control over generative AI

Defining Issues | April 2026

Important considerations and takeaways from COSO’s recent guidance on internal control over GenAI

As GenAI becomes increasingly prevalent in financial reporting processes and ICFR, questions arise regarding the governance and controls needed to evaluate AI-generated outputs. We provide context for understanding the Committee on Sponsoring Organizations’ (COSO) roadmap, explain how it can be used together with KPMG’s AI and automation in financial reporting guide, and highlight observations for users as they apply the roadmap’s guidance to their own facts and circumstances.
