As the financial services industry embraces artificial intelligence at unprecedented speed, the importance of robust governance frameworks and human-in-the-loop validation to manage associated risks—such as bias, explainability, and regulatory compliance—has never been greater. Asermely’s experience in this area will help ValidMind by guiding institutions toward practical, scalable solutions that meet both internal risk mandates and evolving regulatory expectations.
Asermely said he has been a long-time admirer of the ValidMind team and mission.
“ValidMind is one of the few organizations I would have left SAS for,” said Asermely. “Their team is laser-focused on ensuring models are not only high-performing but also fully understood and appropriately governed. The company’s nimbleness and depth in AI risk management make this a particularly exciting time to join.”
A former educator and product leader at BNY Mellon, Asermely brings a deeply human perspective to the world of risk, shaped in part by his experience during the global financial crisis.

“I saw firsthand how analytics done poorly—or incompletely—can lead to devastating consequences for real people,” said Asermely. “That experience fundamentally reshaped my career and led me to focus on ensuring risk is managed thoughtfully, transparently, and with purpose. That’s what makes joining ValidMind so meaningful.”
As part of his role, Asermely will lead go-to-market strategy, strengthen strategic customer partnerships, and help scale ValidMind’s offerings at a time when demand for GenAI and AI governance solutions is growing rapidly.
“David brings a rare combination of technical depth, market insight, and heart,” said Jonas Jacobi, CEO and Co-Founder of ValidMind. “His perspective on the human impact of risk and his ability to translate complexity into clarity make him a powerful addition to our leadership team. We’re thrilled to have him on board.”
