Q

By banks use analytics to:

A

Offer customised products to customers

Identify and provent fraud

Result = improved customer satisfaction, loyalty and retention

AI = Branch of computer science that deals with the stimulation of intelligent behaviour in computers.

A machine intimidating humans behaviour and perform tasks that rely on an human doing

E.g. transactions of languages

19
Q

Machine learning

A

Computer systems learn from data,identify patterns and make decisions

20
Q

Conversational user interfaces (CUIs)

A

A facility like a chat box which allows the human user to interact and hold a conversation with a computer

21
Q

Two types of CUIs

A
  1. Voice assistant that responds when the user talk
  2. Chatbox that responds when user types
22
Q

  2. Cloud computing
  3. Wearable
  4. Block chain
  5. Augmented reality and virtual reality (AR + VR)
  6. Quantum computing
  7. Robotic process automation (RPA)
  8. Regulatory tech (RegTech)
  9. Cryptocurrencies
25
Q

Cloud computing

A

Delivery of computing services over the internet without direct active management by the user

Helps bank automate workflows, deliver new services faster, boost efficiency and cost savings

26
Q

AR - layering info on top of what the user is already seeing

VF - takes the user somewhere else
Can use apps to educate customers (e.g. stock market)

Banks can use for digital banking solutions

Tech being used to improve customer engagement

Q

Regulatory Technology (RegTech )

A

Use the power of AI, big data and block chain to increase regulatory compliance and reduce financial risk
