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.
Into this gap is rushing a great number of new types of banks or lending agencies such as retail chains, plus new payment mechanisms on social media platforms such as Weibo, Facebook, Snapchat and TikTok. Traditional banks are also finding that some FinTech companies are taking away their own customer relationships, as they grow a wide range of services for banks. Customers increasingly expect decisions at the speed of light, influenced by the digital world, and FinTech is enabling banks to buy in that kind of technology rapidly at relatively low cost.
In banking, 85% of IT executives have a clear strategy for adopting AI, while 80% of senior bankers are certain that AI will make all the difference between being a winner or a loser. But at the same time, most are worried about AI risks. AI will rapidly reduce core banking costs
In theory, AI should allow five times the volume of transactions to be handled by same-sized banking teams, allowing major costcutting. In practice, large-scale AI projects in banks carry all the usual risks of any other IT transformation – as we have seen in Chapter 9.
