Finance Transformation

A Talk by Aline-Laure Akpovi , Rachel Taylor , Riccardo Calliano , Sarah Ghosh and Isabelle Sabaud

About this Talk

Artificial intelligence is transforming finance, but where does human insight fit into an increasingly automated field? This panel examines the delicate balance between AI-driven data insights and the critical thinking that finance professionals bring. While AI can streamline processes, human judgment remains irreplaceable in nuanced decision-making.

Panelists will discuss best practices for integrating AI without diminishing human expertise, exploring roles where automation excels and where human oversight remains crucial. Attendees will hear perspectives on ethical AI use and methods to maintain control over AI-powered finance processes.

This session offers guidance on maximizing AI's potential while ensuring human input in strategic and risk-sensitive areas. Participants will gain insights into managing this balance, creating an adaptive and resilient finance strategy.
