The financial services industry continues to undergo transformation due to technological advancements, with AI expected to accelerate the pace and scope of change. This integration has revolutionized the #banking sector, enabling financial institutions to offer faster, more efficient and personalized services to customers. AI-powered chatbots, computer programs that mimic human conversations, have emerged as a prominent trend in the banking industry. Recent years have witnessed several trends in banking driven by technological advances and evolving consumer behavior. These include digital banking, mobile payments, open banking, #blockchain technology and sustainable finance. Financial companies now rely more on digital firms to host crucial IT systems such as cloud-based services, big data, machine learning, #AI and other developments. #Tokenization and open banking are two areas deserving increased attention. Incidents such as #ransomware attacks, data breaches & IT disruptions have become the most critical topics of discussion in the #boardroom. Attacks have grown significantly as larger companies ramp up their protections. How can an organization offload such risks from their balance sheet and unlock the risk capital? Purchase of a bespoke cyber insurance program is one of the ways to free up the #riskcapital. #cyberinsurance #digitalization #bankingindustry #financialservicesindustry
