FSI & AI Hong Kong Summit

AI is redefining the future of BFSI. Be it revenue generation, customer services, internal operations, risk management, or security, AI is recrafting what is possible and impacting profitability. To realize its benefits, 75% of banks in HK have deployed AI while insurance companies are seeing more varied maturity.

To truly embrace AI, financial institutions need to change their organizational structures and ways of working. And for AI and data leaders in such companies, trust, compliance, governance, IT infrastructure, talent and skill gaps remain hurdles despite fast-paced technology advancements. While we are now pitching AI against AI in countering risks, overcoming silos, and ensuring accuracy, humans remain critical in setting strategies, directions, and policies.

The 3rd annual FSI & AI Hong Kong Summit offers an effective platform for AI and data leaders in banking, financial services, and insurance to accelerate the next phase of AI. Through presentations and panel discussions, the summit aims to help companies adopt AI responsibly, maximize its benefits and ensure governance and independence in a highly regulated environment.

A consultant will share his/her perspectives.
