What happened

Asia faces ‘costly paradox’ over divergent AI rules in US and EU Regional countries are adapting either the US or EU legal framework, while Asian tech firms risk incurring a ‘regulatory fragmentation tax’ For firms building AI systems, compliance with…

Why it matters

Asian firms embedded in the global AI ecosystem face dual costs to comply with different EU and US rules, according to Martyna Sucharzewska, a senior technology analyst at BMI, a unit of Fitch Solutions.

Common ground

“Organisations operating across both jurisdictions must build parallel compliance architectures, and the cost of doing so is not trivial,” she said.
