Artificial intelligence and machine learning are rapidly redefining the financial landscape, unlocking new opportunities but also introducing complex challenges for financial institutions, investors, and regulators.
“This is definitely not business as usual,” said Andrew W. Lo, a professor of finance at the MIT Sloan School of Management and the director of the MIT Laboratory for Financial Engineering. “We’re living through an inflection point in technology, but what exactly is that inflection point? And when and how will it impact specific business lines and companies?”
Lo’s new executive education class — Artificial Intelligence for Financial Services: Tools, Opportunities, and Challenges — is designed to help decision makers navigate the changing landscape. The course, which features a cross-disciplinary group of faculty members and experts, covers practical applications across the buy and sell sides and the banking, insurance, and risk management sectors.
