New zero-knowledge design attests fair-lending metrics for regulators

A new research paper introduces ZK-SR117, a novel design for zero-knowledge attestations tailored for aggregated fair-lending metrics. This system allows financial institutions to demonstrate compliance with regulations like SR 11-7 and OCC 2011-12 without revealing sensitive model weights or customer data. The design successfully attests fairness statistics and expected calibration error on a large dataset, outperforming alternative methods in scalability and efficiency. AI

IMPACT Enables financial institutions to meet regulatory compliance for AI models without compromising data privacy.

    ZK-SR117: A Chunked Zero-Knowledge Attestation Design for Aggregated Fair-Lending Metrics, with a Control Mapping toward Full SR 11-7 Coverage

    arXiv:2608.02664v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying ML models in regulated decision-making (credit underwriting, fraud detection, loan approval) requires demonstrating fairness and robustness to auditors without exposing model weights or customer data. We address this att…
