Canada’s Bank of Montreal (BMO) has introduced an AI-powered personal financial management solution for its customers.
Dubbed BMO Insights, the new solution will be integrated with the bank’s mobile app. It runs on a technology developed by Personetics Engage, an AI solutions provider to financial services.
Customers can use the tool to receive personalised financial insights on expenditure, savings and cash flow.
After identifying the customer’s banking patterns, BMO Insights will also provide with the users with actionable intelligence.
With time, the platform refines its capabilities by leveraging a built-in algorithm and prioritises insights for each customer.
Personetics America president Jody Bhagat said: “Personalised, AI driven Insights are a key part of our Self-Driving Finance platform that we provide banks to assist them in increasing engagement with their customers to improve their financial wellbeing.
