Key takeaways

Artificial intelligence (AI) has altered the corporate landscape, particularly in the financial sector. In the loan sector, technology can constantly learn to deliver better service.

The easiest way to eliminate this risk is to estimate each client's risk. Financial organisations could use AI to forecast an individual's creditworthiness and reduce risks.

Human error is one of the most common sources of data breaches around the world. AI can tackle complicated problems with a high degree of consistency and speed, reducing many of the frictions that financial organisations confront.
