25th BFSI Summit 2024: Leading the Future of Financial Services in South Africa

0

Physical conference on November 20th in Qurtuba Convention Centre, Johannesburg

 

South Africa, Johannesburg

South Africa’s BFSI business is rapidly expanding, driven by innovation and technology to improve service delivery and efficiency, as demonstrated by a leading banking institution that has successfully deployed over 100 robotic process automation (RPA) robots to automate a variety of operations. 

This initiative has significantly increased efficiency while highlighting challenges in transitioning from third-party solutions to a custom-built RPA system. The organization’s experience underscores the importance of addressing both technical and non-technical aspects during RPA deployment to ensure a smoother integration process.

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and RPA is transforming processes in South Africa’s banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) industry, resulting in improved service delivery. However, to realize the benefits of these technologies fully, it is essential to address talent shortages and employee concerns. RPA enables organizations to automate routine processes by simulating human actions, which enhances efficiency while maintaining a human-like interaction with computer systems.
