Flags synthetic data generation as necessary but does not describe generation methods or validation.

Synthetic data

As explained in Financial AI in Practice

The creation of artificial data that reproduces selected properties of real data without directly using the original records.

Synthetic data is artificial data designed to reproduce selected properties of real data without using its original records. In credit-risk systems, it supports testing in non-production environments subject to regulatory constraints. section 4.3.1

Testing card data

Randomly generated credit card numbers can still trigger regulatory violations if they are technically valid under the Luhn check. Synthetic data generation and data masking are required from the start. section 4.3.1
