TOPIC
Natural Language Processing for Risk Intelligence
DATE AND TIME
Thursday, November 23, 2023, 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
ABSTRACT
The market is uncertain. Risks are multiplying. How can financial institutions better make decisions? The overwhelming amount of information available is hard to process and interpret. Manual handling of unstructured data is time-consuming and costly. Traditional rule-based subjective decision-making no longer works effectively. This webinar explains how we can leverage artificial intelligence, particularly natural language processing to empower financial institutions to proactively identify and mitigate risks, make informed decisions, and seize opportunities ahead of the curve.
