AI and ML in Financial Services

January 27, 2022

In this session, you’ll learn how financial institutions are using AI and machine learning (ML) to analyze massive amounts of data and improve both their top and bottom lines. Through AI/ML, financial services firms can radically increase the personalization of banking services for clients and anticipate their needs – often before the customer even knows they need the service. AI/ML is also significantly improving fraud detection and prevention, along with spotting anomalous situations before they become a problem. Better predictive models are reducing loan risk and lowering back-office costs as technology reduces repetitive tasks and automates workflows. TD Securities will be the keynote presenter for this session, followed by a panel discussion which includes representatives from Converge Technologies, AMD Enterprise Solutions, and Dell Technologies. Industry analyst Dan Olds from Intersect360 Research will be hosting and moderating this event.

Quantitative Finance

March 9, 2022

HPC technologies coupled with machine learning are revolutionizing quantitative finance, allowing a much deeper understanding of how markets work and how to best navigate increasingly complex financial waters. Through the use of cutting-edge HPC technology, vast amounts of data can be quickly and efficiently analyzed and acted upon while it is still relevant. A representative from the Oxford Man Institute of Quantitative Finance will discuss how advanced technology and AI/ML is used to more accurately model markets and discover what how and why particular markets move. Following this keynote, there will be a panel discussion featuring industry experts from Intel, Graphcore, and Dell Technologies, moderated by Dan Olds from industry analyst firm Intersect360 Research.
