Artificial intelligence applications will pervade the financial industry's front, middle, and back offices. Tailor-made products, personalized user experiences, and analytics services, intelligent service robots and chat interfaces, market trackers, automated transactions, and robot-advisors, as well as alternative credit ratings based on non-financial data and facial recognition authentication, are all examples of customer-facing applications. Smart procedures, increased information representation tools (epitomized by knowledge graphs), and natural language processing for fraud detection are among the middle and back-office applications.

The focus is shifting to acquiring a competitive edge from previously underutilized consumer behavior data gathered through traditional operations.

The UAE has a strong banking sector, which is governed onshore by the UAE Central Bank, which was founded in 1980.

It manages the UAE government's gold and foreign currency reserves, functions as a bank for UAE-based banks, and acts as the UAE's financial agent at international financial institutions.
