The CNMV has reviewed, with the help of an artificial intelligence tool on a trial basis, the advertising of 40 managers of investment funds and closed-ended vehicles that sell directly to retail investors.

- The CNMV will keep expanding the use of AI in supervision under its Helix Plan.
Who is affected
Fund and private equity managers selling to retail investors, and their investors.
Plain-language version
The CNMV, Spain's market watchdog, used an AI tool to review ads from 40 fund managers that sell to ordinary investors. It found problems at 10, such as showing off returns without clearly warning about risks, and has told them to fix it. If an ad promises eye-catching returns, always look for the risks.
