Artificial intelligence in finance refers to the use of machine learning, natural language processing, and generative AI systems to automate financial processes, assess credit risk, and support decision making across banking, capital markets, and insurance.

AI applications in finance span credit scoring, algorithmic trading, fraud detection, finance automation, and AI agents that handle repetitive tasks. Financial institutions adopt these systems to process structured and unstructured data at a scale beyond human intelligence alone, while keeping human intervention in place for high-stakes financial scenarios.

The financial services industry has moved past pilot-stage experimentation with AI technologies.
