AI with machine learning techniques helps the fintechs to fine-tune their security as these techniques can help to identify any fraudulent behavior or suspicious transactions. AI and ML techniques can also prevent any future attack by analyzing the past data.
Processing time: AI and Ml help to reduce the loan processing time by using algorithms to check the eligibility. The loan documentation is also taken care by these techniques, which make the process faster, cheaper and error free.AL and ML techniques also help to automate the repeated process with accuracy. The automated process helps to reduce the workforce, which in turn helps the fintechs to reduce the costs for their services.
