A. Algorithmic Bias
B. Data Misuse
C. Liquidity Risk
D. Cyber Threats
E. Model Risk

Answer: Option C
Explanation: The RBI highlighted risks like bias, opacity, data misuse, model/concentration risk, and cyber threats. Liquidity risk is a traditional banking risk, not specifically linked to AI in this context.

Question 2 - Which one of the following best describes the concept of Human-In-The-Loop (HITL)?

A. AI systems operate independently without human involvement
B. Humans design AI systems but do not interfere in decisions
C. AI decisions are reviewed only after implementation
D. AI replaces human judgment in financial decisions
E. AI assists decision-making, but final authority rests with humans

Answer 2 – Option E
Explanation: HITL ensures that while AI processes large data and provides insights, the final decision-making authority remains with human management, maintaining accountability and control.

Question 3 - What is meant by Responsible AI in the context of financial regulation?

A. Unrestricted use of AI to maximize efficiency
B. AI systems replacing regulatory oversight
C. Use of AI without human intervention
D. Use of AI within ethical and regulatory boundaries
E. AI systems controlled only by private firms

Answer 3 – Option D
Explanation: Responsible AI refers to the use of AI in a manner that ensures fairness, transparency, accountability, and regulatory compliance, without compromising financial stability.

Question 4 - A bank rejects a loan application using an AI system but fails to explain the reason behind the rejection to the customer. Which of the following risks is best illustrated here?

A. Data Misuse
B. Algorithmic Bias
C. Cyber Threat
D. Black Box Problem
E. Concentration Risk

Answer 4 – Option D
Explanation: The inability of the AI system to explain its decision reflects the “black box” problem, where outputs are generated without transparency or explainability.

Question 5 - A leading bank uses an AI-based system to assess borrower creditworthiness and approve loans. Over time, it is observed that the system is producing incorrect risk assessments due to flawed design assumptions, leading to poor lending decisions and rising defaults.

Which of the following risks is best illustrated in the above case?

A. Model Risk
B. Data Misuse
C. Algorithmic Bias
D. Cyber Threat
E. Concentration Risk

Answer – Option A
Explanation: Model risk arises when decisions are based on incorrect or poorly designed analytical systems. Here, flawed assumptions in the AI system led to inaccurate credit assessments, resulting in adverse financial outcomes.

Note: 1 Question is in image. Lets see who will be able to answer.

Message of Mentor (MoM)
Topic: The Test

The coming week is different.

Not because the syllabus changes. But because you must change.

The next 40–45 days are not normal preparation days.
They are pressure days.

You will face distractions.
You will feel tired without reason.
Some days, nothing will go as planned.
Some days, you will question yourself.

That is the design of this phase.

Phase 1 of RBI Grade B Phase 1 is not about comfort.
It is about endurance.

There will be speed breakers.
There will be rough patches.
There will be moments where quitting feels easier than continuing.

But understand this clearly:

Everyone faces this.
Very few push through it.

That is why selection is limited.

Today, sleep well.
Recover. Reset.

Because from tomorrow,
you don’t need motivation, you need discipline. Energy will drop.
Mood will fluctuate. But your effort should not.

This path is not easy.
It was never meant to be.

Only those who accept the grind,
respect the process, and show up daily, move ahead.

And remember this:

You are not competing for the crowd.

You are competing for the few who survive.

Stay in that group.

📊 Just Observe This Carefully

In 2025, the number of frauds reported touched 2.8 million And the value of frauds reached a shocking ₹22,931,00,00,000

Now pause for a second.

From just 0.26 million cases in 2021 to 2.8 million in 2025. From ₹551 crore to ₹22,931 crore

This is not growth.
This is a scam explosion.

🤔 Now the real question is:

If frauds are rising at this pace, what is RBI doing to control this?

In today’s editorial coverage, we’ve broken this down in a very simple and exam-focused way:

1. Why RBI is planning a 1-hour delay in payments
2. What is “shadow mode” in bank accounts
3. How a Kill Switch can save your money
4. What is Mule Account?
5. What is whitelisting

👉 If you haven’t read it yet, you’re missing a very important exam topic

Posting the coverage in next 10 minutes.

E. 55%, 99.5%

Answer – Option B
Explanation: As per RBI data, transactions above ₹10,000 constitute 45% of fraud cases by volume and 98.5% by value, showing that higher-value transactions dominate fraud impact

Question 2 - With reference to the RBI’s proposed framework on digital payments, consider the following statements:

1. Digital transactions above ₹10,000 will be instantly credited but flagged for review.
2. During the 2-hour lag, funds are debited but not credited to the beneficiary.

B. 2 and 3 only
C. 1 and 3 only
