Mumbai, 6 December, 2024: The financial sector landscape is witnessing paradigm shifts with the advent of frontier technologies. Technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI)/ Machine Learning (ML), tokenisation, Cloud Computing hold transformative potential for the financial sector as they can handle enormous volumes of data, automate complex processes, enhance decision-making, and bring in unprecedented efficiencies. While the benefits are many, the attendant risks like algorithmic bias, explainability of decisions, data privacy, etc., are also high. To harness the benefits, it is critical to address the attendant risks early in the adoption cycle.
