AI-generated insights are vital in combating real-time payment scams, such as authorized push payment (APP) fraud. APP fraud is responsible for 40% of banking fraud losses in the UK; the total cost is expected to be $5. 25 billion in the US, UK, and India by 2026 if left unmitigated.&nbsp;

While some countries, such as the European Union, China, and Singapore, have set policies on AI in finance, the United States has been slow and passive. India had followed a policy of non-interference at the beginning of 2023. However, by mid-2024, due to the changing directives and advisories, the country had planned to introduce comprehensive laws for AI.&nbsp;

AI can provide a significant increase in development productivity, with productivity improvement ranging from 10% to 50%. This could mean potential annual cost reductions of between $2 billion to $16 billion within the US banking sector. These efficiency improvements are attributed to the new age AI-based software applications that automate tasks that were earlier managed by technological personnel.

Traditional players are integrating AI in their products to increase efficiency, while start-ups are using AI to disintermediate traditional players. This shift in approach points to the fact that AI is already revolutionizing the finance industry in its approach. These include AI-powered agents, bots, and autonomous systems that are expected to revolutionize financial systems by reducing the role of people in financial transactions.&nbsp;

AI-based clients may increase price pressure in the finance sector, which may alter the power dynamics. It is also expected that digital native, cloud based firms such as FinTechs and BigTechs will likely implement AI faster followed by agile incumbent banks. Traditional institutions that are still using traditional technology and culture may lag behind in the adoption of AI technology and may lose market share.
