Artificial intelligence has modified the physics of financial services (AI). It has altered elements like centers of gravity and weak bonds that are crucial for building a successful business. Data-driven process and talent optimization, product performance, and personalized interactions are now considered to be crucial for increasing value and efficiency.

How AI transforms banking & fintech

Customers in the Millennial and Gen Z generations favor modern, fast technology over antiquated ones. FIs can now meet the demands of customers who are living in the digital age thanks to AI-based goods and services. They are able to improve the user experience by offering specialized goods and services.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies improve the entire customer experience by providing individualized recommendations, insights, and suggestions. To put it briefly, AI enables banks, insurers, asset managers, and fintech to outperform competitors, increase customer lifetime value, and gain market share.

Top 6 use cases of AI in fintech and banking

For AI applications, high-performance computing (HPC), machine learning, and deep learning are used by more than 75% of businesses. Fintech companies use machine learning for the use cases below, whereas deep learning is advantageous for retail banking and capital markets.

Transaction fraud detection

Financial institutions use AI and machine learning to efficiently detect, investigate, and mitigate transaction fraud, money laundering, and KYC discrepancies. AI can decode risk factors and help reduce chargebacks, fake accounts, spam, account takeovers, and other CNP frauds in real-time by analyzing large datasets and user behavior. To name a few, the fraud detection use case is critical in banking, card transactions, insurance, and lending platforms.

Conversational chatbots

Conversational AI applications include chatbots and virtual agents. They are not the same as traditional chatbots. They can understand customer intent, troubleshoot issues, and make small talk based on context by leveraging Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning (ML) processes. They can be used in financial institutions to collect customer information, provide support, resolve queries, and redirect escalations to customer service representatives. These chatbots can provide support via audio, video, and text and can be used across multiple channels.

Regulatory intelligence

To remain in compliance with governments and regulators, the banking and fintech industries must update their operations on a regular basis. AI streamlines, automates, and simplifies compliance requirements. Role-based, personalized dashboards provide cost-effective regulatory intelligence for data-driven decisions. The most recent regulations can be kept up to date, and financial institutions can monitor their compliance status.

Credit decisioning engine

AI-based credit scoring can help speed up creditworthiness and lending decisions. In addition to credit history, transaction patterns, work experience, and online behavior, AI-powered credit scoring models examine real-time indicators such as current income, employment opportunities, and potential earning ability. This allows for a more sensitive and personalized credit score assessment, as well as more inclusive lending decisions.

Algorithmic trading

Making profitable transaction decisions is the foundation of trading. AI-driven algorithmic trading makes profitable trades and develops skilled traders by using pre-trade analytics and trading strategies. AI-based algorithmic trading produces real-time forecasts based on the analysis of price change patterns, currency values, global indices, raw materials, and other macro/micro indicators by assimilating its own data using machine learning techniques. It assists in lowering operational and trading risks and is incredibly accurate at spotting market anomalies.

These, however, are not all. In addition to the use cases mentioned above, AI can speed up and automate customer acquisition, underwriting, and marketing optimization.
