Building trust in responsible AI

18 Dec 2025

As organisations increasingly deploy artificial intelligence (‘AI’) across critical business processes, they face growing pressure to demonstrate compliance and reliability and retain trust among stakeholders.

In 2025, Intertek responded to this challenge by expanding its assurance portfolio to include ISO 42001, the first international standard for establishing, implementing and maintaining an Artificial Intelligence Management System. ISO 42001 provides a globally recognised framework to manage AI risks, governance, ethics, security and continual improvement, reinforcing Intertek’s leadership in emerging technology assurance.

By offering independent certification to this new standard, we have enabled businesses to demonstrate responsible AI practices, strengthen regulatory readiness and build confidence with customers, regulators and other stakeholders. This addition reflects our ongoing investment in future-focused assurance services that help clients innovate with confidence while managing risk in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
