Why High Performance Computing Boosts Finance Firms

HPC Adds More Precision to Risk Assessments

AI models review whether a loan or deal makes sense. With HPC, these models can be trained rapidly and accurately, assessing risk in real time. Advanced analytics supported by HPC also allows financial firms to spot existing risk factors before they harm business interests.

HPC Supports Data-Based Decision-Making

The speed at which HPC can support decision-making is remarkable. By automating data analysis, AI can identify patterns and extract insights instantly, giving IT leaders the information they need to make evidence-based decisions.

Within the rapid-fire world of financial trading, a millisecond can translate to millions of dollars. HPC systems give AI data analytics tools the power to process information and execute trades with near-zero latency. This helps ensure that financial institutions can seize opportunities the moment they arrive, resulting in more robust portfolios and stronger performance.

HPC Enables More Personalized Customer Insights

Customer insights, personalized recommendations and marketing campaigns stem from information gathered in large data sets. HPC supercharges those data sets by allowing for an even greater volume of data and more complex analytics, which in turn deepens customer engagement and satisfaction.

One highly visible use of AI in the financial industry that can be supported by HPC: natural language processing tools such as chatbots. Incorporating predictive analytics, textual data analysis and speech patterns, natural language processing tools can provide 24/7, personalized service to customers. They may be able to function as ersatz financial advisers in the future, even as legal and regulatory questions around chatbots linger.

HPC Ensures Regulatory Compliance

Artificial intelligence automates the process of identifying, organizing and analyzing data across systems that feeds into compliance reports, and it does so with a low error rate. HPC supports AI in automating these complicated compliance processes, helping ensure that financial institutions are meeting their ethical and legal obligations and proving it during audits and compliance reviews.

In a year when experts are forecasting more aggressive scrutiny, financial firms need these supercharged tools to reduce the number of resources devoted to compliance and lower overhead.

The symbiotic relationship between HPC and AI will continue to revolutionize the financial industry. It may be a technological union, but its effects enrich humans at every point along the financial journey — and there’s only more to come.
