TECTEC-001 — Integration Architecture Weaknesses
Algorithmic Trading Feedback Loops and Multi-Agent System Instability
4/5Sector: FinanceGeography: GlobalStage: OperateIngested: —
Executive Summary
Autonomous AI agents in multi-agent environments can enter self-reinforcing feedback loops, as demonstrated by the 2010 flash crash. Boards deploying AI in financial systems must govern inter-agent interactions explicitly, as emergent instability cannot be predicted from individual agent behaviour alone.
