Relevance of AI & IA in Financial Applications for SME Sector



Ever since computing entered the business world, decades ago, financial processes have been one of the beneficiaries of computerization, with applications from many software developers. Initial focus was on tackling volumes and related manual efforts, and subsequently focus shifted to improving processes, and strengthening controls. Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Intelligent Automation (IA), have further enhanced the scope of such applications to seamlessly integrate IT with operations and provided robust support even in complex situations.

  • Reducing manual efforts

  • Help in creating "Clean Ledgers", and
  • Providing timely accounting information to monitor operations.
