Scaling AI in finance - A guide for executive managers

Prof. Dr. Bernd Wallraff

In der dynamischen Welt des Finanzwesens ist der Einsatz von Künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) längst kein Zukunftsthema mehr, sondern Realität. Doch während viele Unternehmen erste Schritte in der Implementierung von KI getan haben, stellt die Skalierung dieser Technologien eine besondere Herausforderung dar.

For years now, blockchain technology has been making waves. At times, being proclaimed a key driver for the next industrial revolution. At others, condemned as nothing more than a useless gimmick powering a gigantic Ponzi scheme. Regardless of the public and market sentiment toward the technology, there are certainly reasons it has received so much attention beyond speculation.

Marco Schreyer

Auditors acquire extensive expertise in a wide variety of audit situations as part of their professional career in auditing.

Pensions are safe! A fairytale from the olden days

Thomas Kohrs

Perhaps Norbert Blüm was convinced that pensions were secure. The present looks different. The topic of pensions is preoccupying politics and business. If the topic is taken seriously, many good decisions must be made. One of them is the private pension provision!

Stephan Hartenstein

Auch das Management steht beim Digital Organisational Resilience Act (DORA) in der Verantwortung, z.B. durch Schulungspflichten oder die Anpassung von Organisationsstrukturen.

Are you fit enough for alternative M&As?

Johannes Gerds

Digital transformation, green energy and e-mobility illustrate new strategic challenges that many business leaders face today. According to recent market surveys, one of two companies plans for Joint Ventures or Alliances to master these challenges. However, most deal-makers are not fit enough for alternative M&As.
