Banks deal with multiple queries from every day account information to application status to balance data. It becomes difficult for banks to respond to enqueries with low turnaround time.
Competitive pressures, out-of-date practises, workflow disconnects, process flows, and inaccurate reporting can all paralyse the banking and finance industry. The operational issues and enforcement can be dealt with deftly by integrating RPA into this volatile business sector. The benefits of RPA in banking and finance include securing margins and ensuring the existing resources are focused on critical tasks such as customer service, investment strategies.
Using emerging technologies such as RPA, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, the Process Automation Tool ingests customer records as they are submitted and identifies potential problems according to set parameters, submission rules and coding guidance. Specifically,
- RPA orchestrates the steps of the intake process
- OCR digitizes the scanned document
- AI and machine learning are applied to understand the document and extract the information necessary to validate the information
Going Paperless with RPA
