New capabilities enabled by artificial intelligence help clients automatically track spending and fast-track savings
TORONTO, Aug. 28, 2017 /CNW/ - Walk the dog, make lunch, dash out the door to work, pay bills, buy groceries on the way home, binge-watch your favourite series, reset and start all over again tomorrow. Living in the moment doesn't leave a lot of time for planning your future, or for trying to grow any savings to finance that future. Imagine if money management and saving could be effortless, something that happened in the background while you were busy living your life?
In another first for a Canadian bank, RBC is announcing the pilot launch of two digital services based on artificial intelligence (AI) that offer actual insights about our client's financials and a fully-automated savings solution that uses predictive technology to identify money in a client's cash flow that can be automatically saved.
NOMI Insights™ and NOMI Find & Save™ provide personalized, timely and relevant insights to help clients manage their day-to-day finances on the go through the RBC Mobile app. Both of these new capabilities use a client's account activity to identify trends, unusual activity and potential savings opportunities.
"We're investing in emerging technology like predictive analytics to better understand our clients. Simple solutions like NOMI Insights and NOMI Find & Save will provide value in a seamless way, when, how and where it's most convenient for our clients," said Neil McLaughlin, Group Head, Personal & Commercial Banking, RBC.
