Automation has helped the financial services industry advance rapidly. It not only helps firms save costs and better serve users, but it has also influenced everything from customer service to regulatory compliance. However, as the industry continues to embrace automation, what should financial institutions consider to ensure innovation doesn’t overshadow empathy and trust?
In this Streamly video, Finovate Research Analyst David Penn and ShareFile Director of Sales for Financial Services Matt Geiger speak about the transformative effects of automation on the finance sector. They explore the opportunities, challenges, and the balance required to implement automation effectively while maintaining a human touch.
“In some ways, automation is awesome because we can take these workflows and have our people focus on more specialized activity… The place that we need to find when we’re talking about automation is to find the balance between [automation and manual activity]. What should I automate and what should I have as a personalized customer experience that’s not automated where humans can interact with each other? And we need to have a balance of both of those things.”
