Despite having established customer bases and trusted brands, many financial institutions struggle to keep pace with the rapid technological evolution driven by fintech firms and digital-first challengers. The potential of AI to transform banking operations, enhance customer experiences, and unlock new revenue streams is evident, yet implementation continues to be a significant hurdle.

I'm joined on the Banking Transformed podcast by Marc Corbett, Director of Solutions Engineering Americas for Backbase, to discuss one of the most pressing challenges facing retail banks today: effectively deploying AI solutions to drive growth.

We explore how retail banks can effectively overcome implementation challenges, harness AI technologies, and transition from reactive to proactive business models. Marc brings valuable insights on navigating this complex landscape to unlock what Backbase calls "Growth Mode" – a state where banks can fully leverage AI to drive sustainable competitive advantage in today's hyper-competitive marketplace.
