What is the chemistry when we put #AI & #FinTech together? How top players #Payment #Mastercard, #VirtualBank #Lending #WeLab & #WealthManagement #InsurTech #Convoy are preparing themselves for the opportunities & challenges in the AI Era? #CUHK #APIB & #Convoy held a forum to explore these hot topics on Jul 5. https://lnkd.in/f5sDQSb

As the keynote speaker of the forum, I delivered a speech on AI #Innovation on #FinancialServices. It followed by a panel discussion. Special thanks to all panel speakers Kenny Cheng George Lee Ricky Wong.

Key takeaways:
1. #data #platform #talent #startup & enterprise collaboration are the sources of today’s FinTech Era
2. If you were not taking any risks, your risk will be even higher.
3. All other payments companies are not our competitors. We worked with partners to connect the dots of data to serve our customers better.
4. When we started, we had zero customer & no data. Used traditional way to loan money out with professional risk management because of no data. We gradually accumulated data and did testing. Now we have millions of customers with powerful big data driven credit scoring with 1000+ plus data points as our predictors.
