Research notes

Research tied to a decision your team owns.

Read the primary source, its scope and the review date. Each note separates what the source says from a practical question for your institution.

Four source-linked explainers.

What SR 26-2 leaves for AI governance

SR 26-2 excludes generative and agentic AI from its scope. Existing risk management still matters; check applicability before using a review method.

AI frameworks are resources, not approval

NCUA points to existing supervision and practical AI resources. NIST describes voluntary use. Connect a framework to an owned workflow review.

Keep the cases behind the pilot number

NIST cautions against narrow AI performance claims. Retain required cases, missing observations, failures and the human acceptance decision.

A renewal review needs more than a rate

Community-bank third-party guidance links costs, obligations, monitoring and exit. Keep comparable activity and unresolved renewal terms visible.

How to read these notes.

Sources were checked on October 4, 2026. A resource or supervisory guide is not automatically a new law, universal examination requirement or certification. Applicability depends on the institution and activity.

Our proposed review questions are method recommendations. They do not assert a regulator requires a particular LLM Squared deliverable.

This collection has no promised publishing cadence or newsletter signup. For current institutional decisions, review the official source with your own risk, compliance and legal teams.

A file to inspect. A decision your institution owns.

Public tools run on supplied inputs and fictional examples. An engagement uses only sources you are allowed to share. We do not connect to a core, compile or execute institution code, take a financial action, certify compliance, give a legal opinion or claim achieved savings.

Read the method and its limits Check the data route

Start with the decision already on your calendar.

Bring the decision, deadline and accountable owner in general business terms. We agree the workflow, permitted sources, review responsibilities and exclusions before work begins.

Scope and fee are fixed in writing after one working session.

Prepare a scope request or email info@llmsquared.com. Do not attach confidential sources to an ordinary inquiry.
