How AI will impact banks: AI will save bank core costs, deliver better banking services, but AI will also create huge new banking risks. Extract from Chapter 22 - new book: How AI will Change Your Life - by Patrick Dixon, keynote speaker on banking and AI

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Banks, Banking, Insurance, Fund Management

Patrick Dixon is a global keynote speaker on future banking and AI, author of 18 books

AI SPENDING BY BANKS is growing by 30% a year and is likely to reach $100bn by 2027, mainly in North America. Last year, banks in the US and Canada were responsible for 80% of published research on AI and funded 60% of all banking investments in AI globally. While most of this is about saving on costs, as we will see, the greatest risk to banks will be AI-driven cyberattacks.

The banking sector as a whole is already in trouble. Indeed, it never recovered its full strength after the 2008–2009 banking crisis. A report by McKinsey shows that 75% of banks are delivering very low returns on capital for investors, not even covering the costs of providing that capital.

One reason is much tougher regulation, which hit profits by requiring banks to tie up more capital in reserves and be more cautious. But if you don’t allow decent financial returns on investment in a particular sector, then the market will tend to dump those shares in preference for something ‘safer’. And this is what has happened: banks are now struggling to attract strong investor interest – compared to ‘more exciting’ AI-related companies for example. But our world needs strongly capitalised banks. Banks are as fundamental to the future of every country as hospitals and schools.

AI Investing, AI in Fund Management, Pension Funds, AI trading in Stock Markets and Global Financial Services AI, Banking AI. Extract from Chapter 21 - new book: How AI will Change Your Life - by Patrick Dixon, keynote speaker on Fund Management AI

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Banks, Banking, Insurance, Fund Management

Patrick Dixon is a global keynote speaker on fund management and AI, author of 18 books - in conversation with Futurist Gerd Leonhard.

AI WILL CUT banking costs, improve decision-making and reduce certain risks, in particular from fraud. But AI decisions will also dominate global markets, destroy some banks and risk global economic chaos.

A very important area of financial services is wealth management, and much of this relates to pensions, because for most people almost all the wealth they have, other than their homes if they are owners, is in pension savings (unless they work for government).

AI is taking control of stock markets globally

AI is rapidly taking control of all global stock markets. More than $110tn of company shares are listed in these exchanges, but over 90% of trading decisions are by computers, nanoseconds after a small or large event. Human beings are no longer involved. And increasingly such decisions are controlled by AI.

In the past, computer trades were automated, using human rules linked to market data, social media and news bulletins. The key to ‘algorithmic trading’ is ultra-speed. If there’s an earthquake in San Francisco, or an assassination in Brazil, computers dump huge volumes of shares a few billionths of a second later. That’s because their rules are set to ‘expect’ many others to ‘panic sell’.

The most successful trading companies make tens of millions of dollars a year by sending in their own automated orders just a few billionths of a second before anyone else. They have faster processors, shorter cables, and use other digital tricks such as their own microwave transmitters to avoid latency in public networks.

Q+A What about Future of Logistics in Banking? Dealing with costs of cash handling, and alternative beyond mobile payments. Comment on future of BlockChain, Cryptocurrencies, BitCoin etc - issues of sustainability and efficiency. Banking Keynote Speaker

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Banks, Banking, Insurance, Fund Management

Comment by logistics and supply chain keynote speaker on key banking trends related to logistics. Patrick Dixon, Futurist, at Seminarium Chile. Banks have logistics challenges of their own relating to moving cash around which is very expensive. While COVID accelerated a major shift to cashless payments in many nations, cash continues to be used widely, especially in emerging markets. Meanwhile, BitCoin and Blockchain have proven very costly and totally unsuitable to replace most normal day to day payments. Future of banking, mobile payments, smartphone banking Apps, cryptocurrency transactions, cross-border payments, remittances, cash and financial services.

The Truth about BitCoin Crisisfor secure payments - A single BitCoin payment uses as much power as your home in a week. Blockchain sustainability issues. Shocking truth on BitCoin carbon emissions - similar problems for all Blockchain sustainability

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Banks, Banking, Insurance, Fund Management

A single BitCoin transaction uses as much electricity as your home for a week.

Just as I predicted several years ago, we have seen billions won and lost in a gamble on volatile prices of BitCoin, without really understanding BitCoin limitations.

Here are some facts about BitCoin that will limit its future:

- It takes 94,000 kw hours at the time of writing to produce a single BitCoin

- 159 different nations use less power each year than BitCoin mining!

- That’s more power on this experiment last year than 2 billion of the poorest people used – 1 billion of which have no access to a national grid

- A single BitCoin transaction, logged in a BlockChain, burns up as much energy as your home for a week – so forget about using BitCoins as a global day-to-day currency

Future of Banking - Cybersecurity risks, Ransomware attacks etc - Xpedition keynote speaker

When you combine all the power and all the weaknesses of the Internet of Things, Big Data, Cloud Computing and Artificial Intelligence / AI, together with 6 billion smartphones, computers and other smart devices, the result is a gigantic range of lucrative targets, and a potential future global emergency.

As I warned years ago, every large company in the world is now experiencing frequent, severe cyber-attacks, on their own systems or in the Cloud, whether they know or not. Much of this is linked to activity supported and encouraged by governments, attacking the economies and intellectual capital of other nations.

As we will see, over 4 billion people have already been personally affected by theft of their private details – and this is just the beginning of the security nightmare, which will drive huge investment in new security measures by all large corporations and by governments.

Compliance is Dead. Why 100% compliance with every regulation in every nation will not be enough to protect brand of a bank or build trust in an insurance company. Compliance risks - how to go beyond compliance with ethical decisions and ESG

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Banks, Banking, Insurance, Fund Management

Seminar / Keynote on Future of Banking for Xpedition

Compliance with regulation really matters. However, as many bankers discovered, 100% compliance with every law may keep you out of prison but cannot protect your brand or reputation, or build trust. You can comply perfectly with every banking or environmental regulation in every country in every year, but that will not help you when public mood changes.

A scandal happens, which is followed by a public reaction, which leads to new regulations, new compliance rules. These compliance requirements are interpreted by lawyers, who try to work out what it means. And then your compliance teams turn it into another box-ticking exercise, to check you really are compliant.

But you are only complying with history...so what should companies do now?

Banking and Financial Services strategies for a post-COVID world. As a physician by first training and a Futurist advisor / keynote speaker on industry trends and strategy to over 400 of the world's largest 2000 companies, I warned for years of the threat from new viral pandemics like COVID and of course multiple variants such as Delta and Omicron. My clients include many of the world's largest banks, with a proven track record of longer term forecasting over the last 25+ years, here are some guiding principles to banking and financial services beyond COVID. Global Crisis will accelerate pre-existing banking and payments trends. Most banking trends described in my books, including The Future of Almost Everything, will continue to shape the world as before, but the Coronavirus pandemic will bring forward the timings of many key events in many industries. Examples:

Huge further acceleration of online sales, mobile payments, mobile banking and business to business online transactions. Many Shopping Malls will struggle to re-open in developed nations. Physical retail will lose out even more to online shoppers, with big jump in online sales which will only partially reverse after the pandemic has ended. Airlines will consolidate more rapidly in Europe because of COVID-19, following US picture over the last decade. Larger airlines will be most likely to be rescued by governments. Borderline-non-viable airlines will be allowed to fold. Even faster growth of virtual working and virtual teams. Faster introduction of virtual learning into college education, MBAs, Business Schools and High Schools etc.

Here is more on COVID impact on banking strategies, national economies, government borrowing, interest rates, inflation rates, bank lending criteria, banking regulation and so on.

The Future of Banking – futurist keynote speaker on bank trends, customer expectations, cybersecurity, fraud risk, Fintech innovation, mobile payments, blockchain and bitcoin. Futurist keynote speaker - long post on banking

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Banks, Banking, Insurance, Fund Management

As a Futurist I have been advising global leadership teams of the world’s largest banks for over 20 years on a wide range of new opportunities, issues, risks and macro trends. The conversations have changed over the years far less than you might imagine: many of the old challenges still remain, while the urgency for radical change has never been greater.

In our densely interconnected world, every trend below will link to every other trend, often in complex ways, and the list below is not in order of importance, with greatest focus on the future of retail banking.

Here are just a few of the wider banking trends that are particularly bright on my own radar screen at the moment. There are many others....

Future of Private Banking is Philanthropy. Reasons for boom in Philanthropic advisory services for wealthy clients. Impact on wealth advisors, Family Offices andFund Management

50% of global wealth is owned by 1% and within 30 years that is likely to rise to 65% or more. The number of dollar billionaires is growing rapidly every year. The richest 80 people on earth own as much wealth as the poorest 3.4 billion people. Over 1,600 billionaires and their families own between them $6.4 trillion – which is more than the combined income of the poorest 120 countries in the world. And in the layer below that are a further 250,000 Ultra-High Net Worth individuals (UNHWs). So what is going to happen to all this wealth? The answer is that a huge proportion will be given away. Why?

I have been advising many of the largest Private Banks in the world and large Investment Funds for over 20 years. I have also worked with many of the world’s wealthiest entrepreneurs and Family Offices. For 20 years now I have been saying that Philanthropic advisory services will be at the heart of Private Banking and wealth management, for the next few decades. The reasons are simple....

Keynote on risk management to 4500 executives in Las Vegas - recorded before COVID

Future of risk management in banks - urgent steps that every bank needs to take to reduce risks while still remaining agile and able to innovate in the face of new threats such as AI. Artificial Intelligence is creating massive new vulnerabilities in every bank's security. 36,000 reads of this Article - includes Video comment and clips from keynote on risk management for clients of Wolters Kluwer.

Banks face multiple, highly complex risks in a world that is changing faster than you can call a board meeting. Some of these banking risks are preventing innovation - for example paralysis which often happens for several years after a merger, while legacy IT systems are made to work together, for example AI reinventing entire banking processes in 6 months. Others are working against customer interests - slowing down services or preventing access altogether. Some risks such as cyberattack are likely to grow very rapidly over the next decade, powered by criminal abuse of Artificial Intelligence engines to hack even the most secure global banking systems.

Future of FinTech, Banks and Financial Services Trends - Futurist Keynote Speaker on FinTech Innovation, mobile payments, Banking, Insurance and Personal Finance - FEATURE

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Banks, Banking, Insurance, Fund Management

I have worked with many of the largest banks and insurers in the world over the last 20 years, and all of them are focussed right now on the threat and opportunity of FinTech innovation.

Very simply: FinTech will cause as radical changes to banking and payments as the web has caused to the whole of society. Combine the gigantic power of the web and mobile tech with the profits of the entire financial sector worldwide, and you get one of the greatest opportunities to create digital wealth that the world has ever seen.

That's one reason why FinTech is one of the fastest growing areas of IT innovation with over $18bn invested a year. In the first 3 months of 2017, Global FinTech startups raised $2.78n of investment from global venture capital firms, in 226 separate deals. In London alone there are probably over 10,000 FinTech startups - it is hard to keep track of the frenetic pace of change in this sector.

Why is FinTech so important?

FinTech combines all the power of the web, the potential of mobile transactions, the capabilities of cloud-computing, of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data analytics, and all the potential of mega-sized IT platforms, to completely transform how money is stored and transferred, globally.
