Episode 26 — AI in Finance

Finance has always been data-driven, making it a natural fit for AI. In this episode, we cover early uses like algorithmic trading and credit scoring before moving into today’s advanced applications. Fraud detection systems flag suspicious transactions, while risk models forecast credit and market exposure. Personalized financial services, robo-advisors, and chatbots make customer interaction faster and more tailored. On the institutional side, portfolio optimization and insurance underwriting are being reshaped by AI-driven prediction.Yet finance also demonstrates the risks of AI adoption. Algorithmic trading can increase volatility, lending models may replicate bias, and data privacy must be tightly guarded. Regulatory technology (RegTech) is one response, using AI to monitor compliance and detect suspicious activity. Global adoption varies widely, with emerging markets leveraging AI for financial inclusion. This episode helps listeners understand how AI not only changes how money is managed but also raises ethical and systemic questions about stability and fairness.
