Advisory Board

Four disciplines,
one standard of proof.

AI governance sits where technology, regulation, security and board accountability meet. No single discipline covers it, which is why Anove's advisory board is composed as it is: financial services supervision, cyber security, AI and law, and corporate governance. Their judgement sits behind what insAIght claims.

The members

Financial services

Erik Muetstege

Chair of the Supervisory Board

Nationale-Nederlanden Bank

Erik Muetstege is a seasoned financial services executive. He was chief executive of Nationale-Nederlanden Bank and now chairs its supervisory board, and he serves as chair within the supervisory structure of VGA Verzekeringen. His career has been spent at board level in highly regulated environments. He advises Anove on what supervisors expect of regulated institutions, and on the difference between a control that exists on paper and one that can be evidenced on request.

What this means for you

Your board’s sign-off is anticipated rather than discovered late.

Cyber security

Mathias Bücherl

Chief Audit Officer (former CISO)

Heidelberg Materials

Mathias Bücherl is Chief Audit Officer at Heidelberg Materials, and was previously its Group Chief Information Security Officer, where he led the global cyber security and resilience strategy. He teaches in the cyber security domain at Hochschule Luzern and brings deep expertise across cyber security, risk and governance. He advises Anove on the practitioner's problem: discovering the AI that inventories miss, and producing evidence that survives an audit.

What this means for you

Controls are built for real operations, with plants, suppliers and incidents included.

AI and law

Dr. Linda Terlouw

AI expert and author

Author of Deep Learning

Dr. Linda Terlouw is an AI expert with a doctorate from Delft University of Technology and a track record of applying AI in regulated and public-safety contexts, including work with the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee. She is affiliated with Antwerp Management School and is the author of the book Deep Learning. She advises Anove on where AI practice and AI regulation meet.

What this means for you

AI obligations are read by someone who understands both the model and the statute.

Governance

Dr. Anant Joshi

Information management

Maastricht University

Dr. Anant Joshi teaches and researches information management at Maastricht University, where his work covers the corporate governance of IT, digital transformation, and the related risk and compliance questions. He is involved with the Digital Business and IT expertise centre at Antwerp Management School and has published widely on IT governance, transparency and compliance requirements. He advises Anove on how compliance posture should be reported to a board.

What this means for you

What you report upward is structured to withstand questions.

Why these four

A board of four generalists would answer the same question four times. Each seat here answers a different question your regulator, your auditor or your customers’ security teams will eventually ask.

01
Financial services supervision
What a supervisor accepts as evidence of control, and how a board demonstrates it.
02
Cyber security
Whether a control survives contact with real operations, suppliers and incidents.
03
AI and law
What an AI system must be able to explain about itself, and to whom.
04
Corporate governance
Who is accountable, what gets reported, and how quickly it can be produced.

On the agenda

The questions the board keeps open.

These are the questions our customers are answering to supervisors, auditors and their own boards. So these are the questions the board keeps on the agenda, across domain expertise, academic rigour and the realities of large regulated organisations.

01
Evidence that survives scrutiny
What a regulator, an external auditor or an enterprise security team will actually accept as proof, and what they wave away.
02
Obligations arriving next
Reading incoming regulation and standards early, and deciding what they mean for the product before customers feel the deadline.
03
AI assurance and explainability
What an AI system must be able to say about itself: documentation, testing, monitoring, and the limits of a good explanation.
04
Third-party and supply-chain risk
Where our customers’ obligations meet their vendors’ obligations, and how that evidence gets collected without a spreadsheet marathon.
05
Accountability at board level
How a management body demonstrates oversight in a way that holds up, without drowning the organisation in reporting.

The board's role at Anove

Advisory, independent, and clear about its limits.

The advisory board reviews Anove's product direction, our reading of regulation and the evidence insAIght produces. It meets management regularly, and its members are free to disagree on the record.

It holds no statutory responsibility for Anove and exercises no supervisory authority over management. Members serve in a personal capacity, and their affiliations are stated for context, implying no endorsement by their institutions or employers.

Same rigour, applied to your obligations.

Bring us the framework you are being held to. We will show you what evidence insAIght produces for it.
