8、d fine-tune large language models(LLMs)can be costly.Some analysts and technologists estimate the cost to be in the millions of dollars.Organizations will need to consider whether they want to create their own LLM trained on specific data,fine-tune a ready-made commercial or OSS LLM for a specific u
9、se case or implement a commercial LLM for the entire organization.The decision will likely hinge on several factors,including fine-grained access control to critical data and the availability levels of budget,time and specialized skills.According to our internal technology experts,these will be the
10、most important data requirements for gen AI and LLMs:Strong security and governance:To protect personally identifiable information,enforce regulatory and business-critical fine grained access controls,ensure ethical data use and mitigate potential risks,strict security and governance capabilities ar
11、e essential for model training and use.Scale of data:Access to large volumes of data is required to train or fine-tune LLMs.Data quality:AI systems are only as good as the data theyre built on,and poor data quality can lead to data bias.Compute power:AI models require substantial computational resou
12、rces for actions such as processing large datasets,making complex computations and processing data in real time.The foundation for success is a data platform that allows flexible,cost-effective ways to access gen AI whether organizations want to use off-the-shelf commercial and OSS LLMs for simple w

14、nancial Services.“While it will unlock enormous productivity and open up countless opportunities,organizations will also have to mitigate the risks of ungoverned usage to deliver successful outcomes.Unified data access,strong governance and robust security combined with technical expertise and a cle
15、ar understanding of business objectives will be essential.”Gen AI will become the modus operandi of customer interactionPublic sentiment for the financial services industry took a hit in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis.Since then,organizations have invested heavily in improving their rela
16、tionships with clients.But customer satisfaction for companies in this space still lags behind brands in other sectors such as technology,retail and consumer goods.To improve customer experience,financial services institutions will invest heavily in gen AI to develop customer interfaces that speed r
17、esponse times and simplify bureaucratic complexity.In fact,gen AI will become the new model for how customers interact with their bank or insurer.Popular enterprise gen AI use cases that can improve customer engagement include conversational copilots for data and document analysis and summarization,
18、and report generation.Chatbots or virtual assistants can now answer questions regarding investment ideas,portfolio performance,account information,and claims or fraud concerns.In wealth management,gen AI can support better investment decision-making and help improve the client experience.Gen AI will
19、 not replace financial services professionals who can develop client relationships and understand the complexities of client needs.Instead,it will deliver faster information and analytics,enabling client-facing employees from call center agents and branch managers to financial advisors and private b
20、ankers to serve customers more efficiently.“Gen AI presents opportunities to refine and redesign the customer experience,”says Patel.“Copilot-enabled user experiences will streamline and enhance consumer interactions with services provided by a bank,insurer or asset manager.Todays asset owners and m

22、 is driving financial institutions to seek new revenue streams.One potential source is data sharing.Financial services companies have robust client and transaction data that can power gen AI-enabled insights both within and outside their organization.For example,custodian banks are building applicat
23、ions that provide institutional clients with gen AI-powered assets and security servicing data,models and analytics.Payment companies are using transaction data and analytics to support their customers in tackling fraud and better managing risk.Exchanges and data providers are packaging their data w

25、ditional data platforms.Financial services organizations need a modern data platform that allows them to to anonymize data and share it without moving or copying it,or risking the exposure of PII.Increasingly,financial institutions will monetize their data through apps and data marketplaces.The ones
26、 that do so successfully will gain a competitive advantage.“When it comes to enabling a next-generation data experience for our customers,data sharing will remove the need to physically move data in large volumes from vendors to customers and from customers to counterparties and regulators,”says Pat

35、inancial services leaders,and rightfully so.In 2022,financial services companies were the second-most-targeted industry for cyberattacks that resulted in data compromises,behind only healthcare.And even as recently as November 2023,the U.S.financial services division of Chinese bank ICBC was hit by
36、a cyberattack that reportedly disrupted U.S.Treasury markets.This demonstrates how gen AI is a double-edged sword in the realm of financial services cybersecurity.On one hand,it can boost security by detecting risks and providing immediate automated responses.On the other,it can introduce new vulner
37、abilities.“Robust security and governance controls sit at the heart of any enterprise data strategy and now at the core of gen AI implementation,”says Patel.“Poor data control in these areas has real consequences.Were talking about noncompliance and spiraling costs,as well as poor customer experienc
38、e and damaged reputations.”This is why organizations will increasingly focus on security and governance capabilities to realize the value of gen AI while mitigating the risks.Leading financial institutions will rely on strong data foundations that share,secure and govern data throughout the entire b
