The pace of change in digital technology is accelerating exponentially, particularly in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).

In this series, I will try to provide an overview of what constitutes AI, how it is already being applied to banking, insurance and capital markets today, and how organizations can craft a value-driven AI strategy. Why are we experiencing the current level of growth in the AI field? At Accenture, we believe the time to move on AI is now.
