BIG news for UAE banks. The CBUAE Guidance Note on AI names Large Language Models in its GenAI definition. The CBUAE Rulebook says it was "Issued on 11/2/2026".
Clause 2(b) says "LFIs should not employ AI models that they have no control over." Clause 6(f) asks for "the clear and immediate ability, with human intervention, to cease use". That is a real kill switch. Tested.
The word "agent" never appears in the note. But the UAE Cabinet announced a framework "aiming to transform 50% of UAE Government sectors and services within two years to Agentic AI". Agents are coming. Govern them FIRST.
I mapped ten clauses a GenAI or agent team will touch, with the note's own words and a checklist for Monday:

Which clause is hardest for your bank to evidence today?
