This has become a top priority, as it directly impacts customer satisfaction, loyalty, and ultimately, the success of the institution itself. Currently, there is a growing need among Indian banks to utilize Gen AI-powered virtual agents to handle customer inquiries. Adding Gen AI to existing processes helps banks convert customer call to data, search knowledge repositories, integrate with pricing engine for quotations, generate prompt engineering, and provide real-time audio response to customers. This, in turn, improves user experience as it minimizes the wait time for the customer, reduces redundant and repetitive questions, and improves interaction with the bank.

Identifying a use case necessitates substantial effort in prioritization, cost-benefit analysis, and strategic considerations regarding technology and data architecture. Therefore, financial institutions worldwide are typically exploring only 7-10 crucial use cases on average. Our survey confirms this pattern, as 45% of participants have emphasized that identifying use cases and inadequate focus on Gen AI initiatives are among the primary obstacles when implementing Gen AI.
