The regulatory alarm triggered by Anthropic's latest AI model, Mythos, is spreading across the Atlantic. After US Treasury Secretary Bessent and Federal Reserve Chairman Powell urgently summoned Wall Street bank CEOs, the Bank of England has also placed this model on its agenda, preparing to formally discuss its potential risks with financial institutions.

According to Bloomberg's report last Saturday, the Bank of England plans to hold a dedicated discussion within the next two weeks at its Cross-Market Operational Resilience Group (CMORG) and CMORG Artificial Intelligence Working Group meetings on the impact of the Anthropic Mythos model on financial institutions. Representatives from the UK Treasury, Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) will be invited to participate.

This series of regulatory actions reflects the common judgment of regulators worldwide: the cyberattack threats posed by new AI models represented by Mythos have become one of the most significant risks currently facing the financial industry.

US-UK regulatory coordination, alarm crossing the Atlantic

According to Bloomberg's report last Friday, US Treasury Secretary Bessent and Federal Reserve Chairman Powell urgently summoned CEOs of major Wall Street banks at the Treasury headquarters in Washington this Tuesday, with the core topic of the meeting being the cybersecurity threats that Mythos may pose. According to sources, the purpose of the meeting was to ensure that banks are fully aware of the potential risks of Mythos and similar models and have taken necessary system protection measures.

This US meeting was arranged at short notice and had not been reported publicly beforehand, which itself sends a strong signal. All invited banks are classified as systemically important financial institutions by top regulators, and their stability is directly related to the global financial system.

The UK quickly followed. According to a source, relevant meetings at the Bank of England have already been scheduled. The Bank of Canada also held a meeting with banks and financial institutions last Friday, specifically discussing the cybersecurity risks posed by Mythos.

Mythos Model: Both Capabilities and Risks

Anthropic states that Mythos is a highly complex AI model capable of identifying and exploiting vulnerabilities in all mainstream operating systems and web browsers. It is precisely this capability that has attracted heightened caution from financial regulators.

The Trump administration has issued warnings to bank executives this week, urging them to take the model seriously and deploy relevant capabilities to detect system vulnerabilities. Currently, major Wall Street banks have begun internal testing of Mythos.

The message conveyed by these emergency meetings is highly consistent: regulatory agencies believe that AI-driven cyberattacks have now become one of the biggest risks facing the financial sector. From the US to the UK and Canada, financial regulators in major economies have all taken action within a short timeframe; such coordination has rarely been seen in recent financial regulatory history.
