AI Finance Leadership Forum

About the AI in Financial Services Leadership Forum

The purpose of the AI Finance Leadership Forum is to support financial institutions and fintech leaders in harnessing AI to transform operations, improve decision-making, and drive customer-centric innovation across banking, insurance, and asset management.

This leadership forum will explore high-impact applications such as fraud detection, algorithmic trading, credit risk modelling, AI-enhanced financial forecasting, and hyper-personalised customer service—areas seeing the fastest AI adoption and investment growth across the financial sector.

The forum will also examine the critical challenges around AI regulation, ethical deployment, model transparency, and data integrity—providing financial leaders with practical insights and peer-led case studies to navigate this evolving landscape.

Together, we can shape a future where AI empowers a more inclusive, transparent, and sustainable financial ecosystem.
