The MCP Financial Services Interest Group (FSIG) is a collaborative community advancing the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for use in regulated financial services environments.
Charter: modelcontextprotocol.io/community/interest-groups/financial-services — mission, scope, leadership, membership, operations, and discussion topics. Calendar: MCP Meetings — Finance Meeting notes & agendas: FSIG Meeting Notes Discord: #financial-services-ig
The FSIG coordinates financial-industry stakeholders to:
- Define and build finance-specific MCP extensions (compliance/auditability, data lineage & provenance, guardrails & attestation, etc.)
- Advocate for spec enhancements when extensions aren't sufficient (via SEPs with core maintainer sponsorship)
- Drive common standards enabling interoperability across regulated institutions
- Provide a neutral forum to address regulatory and risk constraints with open technical solutions
See the charter for the full scope, leadership, membership, and current discussion topics.
FSIG members are actively contributing to these MCP working groups and experimental extensions:
- Interceptors
- Variants
- Skills over MCP
Cadence: Every two weeks · Time: 16:00–17:00 London (BST/GMT) · Duration: 60 minutes · Format: Virtual
