Losses from operational risk events cost financial institutions tens of billions of dollars every year.

Throw in increasing costs to manage ever more complex financial operations, plus regulator demands to show that everything is running smoothly. All this, along with intense market competition means profit margins are shrinking.

While the adoption of Machine Learning in capital markets has traditionally been about generating investment alpha, these technologies including GPT models have produced welcome options for handling operational risk and generating efficiencies across the investment operations of financial firms.

In this discussion we walk through 3 scenarios where these technologies are helping Banks and Asset Management firms cut through the noise and improve decision making using data intelligence. This in turn is reducing risk, lowering costs, and generating operational alpha.
