Whitepaper: ENFCO Survey-Results “AI & Compliance” 2025

12 December 2024

ENFCO (European Network for Compliance Officers) conducted a Europe-wide survey entitled “AI & Compliance” between September 13 and October 21, 2024. Purpose of the survey was to get an overview of how AI influences compliance functions and how it is treated within compliance. 454 people took part in the survey. 78 percent of respondents worked in the compliance area and 16 percent in the legal area. The distribution of responses varies across company sizes, with larger companies (over 8.000 employees) and smaller companies (fewer than 50 employees) representing a larger share compared to mid-sized companies. The trend shows that AI is already integrated to some extent in most companies. Over 63 percent of respondents report using AI either regularly or occasionally for professional purposes. More than 80 percent of respondents either strongly or rather agree that AI can significantly support the compliance function. The survey addresses AI definition and framework conditions, benefits and challenges, responsibilities and organization, areas of application of AI, implementation status of AI in Compliance, future perspectives and demographic data.
