AI-based Robo-Advisory in Private Banking: Process Redesign and Strategic Guidance
As AI technology continues to evolve, it is increasingly becoming an essential part of many industries. The finance sector is no exception, and the implementation of AI-based robo-advisory (RA) is rapidly replacing traditional retail investment advisors. However, private banking (PB) clients demand a higher level of personalization in service provision across different digital channels. This is where AI Spaces, an AI consulting firm, aims to help organizations sustainably integrate AI into their processes. As part of our efforts, we have written a scientific article that investigates the impact of intelligent RA on PB investment advisory. Our study offers process redesign knowledge and strategic guidance for AI usage in PB investment advisory.
Methodology
Our study applies an AI process impact analysis approach and decomposes AI-based RA into three AI application types: conversational agent, customer segmentation, and predictive analytics. The analysis results reveal sub-process transformations, which are applied for process redesign integrating AI.
Findings
Our study provides several valuable findings that organizations can utilize to integrate AI into their investment advisory processes. Firstly, AI systems enable seamless client journeys, which is critical in meeting client demands for personalized service provision across different digital channels. Secondly, AI increases advisor flexibility, allowing advisors to focus on more complex and value-adding activities. Thirdly, AI supports the client-advisor relationship by applying an omnichannel approach, which enhances client engagement. Finally, AI demands that advisor skills be augmented with technical and statistical knowledge, highlighting the need for investment advisors to possess the necessary skills to leverage AI systems effectively.
