Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Banking - Thematic Research

AI is overhauling the way that banks interact with their clients. No longer do they rely on in-person customer service. Instead, they are innovating with intelligent chatbots that can provide 24/7 service, with almost zero human intervention and marginal cost. The use of big data in risk assessments gives banks more visibility over their clients than ever before, and the prospect of much greater personalization across credit pricing, day-to-day customer interaction, and digital financial guidance and advice. AI is also playing a critical role in the response to the growing frequency and severity of cyber-attacks. As cybercriminals employ more advanced tools, banks must keep pace by employing machine learning tools to hunt and counter these activities, which are too dynamic to be countered manually. The entire banking stack is being upended by AI; to survive, banks must make adopting it a priority - or risk losing out to cloud-native fintechs that have incorporate AI in their operations from day one.
