Objectives of the session

This session will discuss how new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and data analytics may help to improve retail financial services and how they may impact retail finance business and operating models in the short and medium term.

The panel will also assess the opportunities and challenges associated with these changes for retail customers and whether the current policy framework needs to evolve in any way to allow an appropriate development of these innovations and mitigate any potential new risks.
