Martyn Tamerlane, the author of the report, said: “AI and ML represent an exciting shift for finance providers and, while the benefits are better understood now than they were a couple of years ago, the practical side to acquiring those benefits is still unclear for many.

“By illuminating the key characteristics of this technology, we’re providing a platform from which people can effect major change,” Tamerlane said.
