In this episode of Banking Reinvented, host Tim Rutten and Backbase Founder & CEO Jouk Pleiter are joined by special guest Henning Soller, Partner at McKinsey & Company. Together, they examine key strategies for ensuring banks are able to successfully adopt AI at their institution and drive real results.
