Abstract
This paper examines the uptake of AI-driven fraud detection systems among financial institutions in the UAE and Qatar, with a special focus on trust, transparency, and perceptions of fairness. Despite the promise of AI operations in identifying financial anomalies, unclear decision-making processes and algorithmic bias constrain its extensive acceptance, especially in regulation-driven banking sectors. This study uses a quantitative strategy based on Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) and Multi-Group Analysis (MGA) of survey responses from 409 bank professionals, such as auditors and compliance officers. This study shows that transparency greatly enhances trust, which is the leading predictor of AI uptake. Fairness perception mediates the negative impacts of algorithmic bias, emphasizing its important role in establishing system credibility. The analysis of subgroups shows differential regional and professional variations in trust and fairness sensitivity, where internal auditors and highly AI-exposed subjects are found to exhibit higher adoption preparedness. Compliance with regulations also emerges as a positive enabler of adoption. This paper concludes with suggestions for practical implementation by banks, developers, and regulators to align AI deployment with ethical and regulatory aspirations. It recommends transparent, explainable, and fairness-sensitive AI tools as essential for promoting adoption in regulation-driven sectors. The findings provide a guide for promoting responsible, trust-driven AI implementation in fraud detection.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
