Abstract generation in progress

In today’s rapidly evolving financial services landscape, data-led innovation is becoming a cornerstone for modernising operations and enhancing customer experiences. Financial institutions are increasingly leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to break down traditional silos, improve data accessibility, and ensure compliance with stringent regulatory requirements.

The integration of AI, and increasingly agentic AI, is transforming how financial services operate, offering significant opportunities for efficiency, security, and competitiveness. The primary objective now is to extract insights from data in real-time (or as close to real-time as possible), reducing the time from data acquisition to actionable insights.
