AI-Powered Transformations in Financial Services: Automation and Innovation in Investment and Risk Models
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2025, Vol 10, Issue 06
Abstract
The financial services industry is undergoing an unprecedented transformation, driven by the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into core operational frameworks. AI is revolutionizing investment strategies, risk assessment models, and decision-making processes across global financial markets. Its impact extends beyond mere automation of tasks to reshaping how institutions manage portfolios, evaluate risk, predict market behaviours, and navigate regulatory complexities. This paper investigates the transformative potential of AI-powered systems in financial services, with a particular focus on investment management and risk modelling. It explores how AI-enabled tools such as machine learning algorithms, natural language processing, and predictive analytics enhance data interpretation, enable dynamic investment strategies, and support adaptive risk management frameworks. Furthermore, the paper delves into the ethical, regulatory, and operational challenges that accompany AI adoption, including concerns around transparency, bias, and accountability in automated systems. While AI presents significant opportunities for efficiency and innovation, its integration raises critical questions about fairness, explainability, and the future of human expertise within the financial sector. The study also examines the strategic imperatives for financial institutions seeking to leverage AI technologies while maintaining regulatory compliance and safeguarding customer trust. By contextualising AI’s application within the broader global financial ecosystem, the paper highlights both the transformative potential and the inherent risks of AI in shaping the future of financial services. The findings offer insights for stakeholders navigating this evolving landscape and underscore the importance of a balanced approach to AI integration—one that maximises value while mitigating systemic risks. The paper concludes by identifying key areas for future research and practical recommendations for policymakers, regulators, and industry leaders.
