Artificial Intelligence — Resources

The future of Merger and Acquisition processes involves leveraging AI

In recent years AI has evolved from a ‘future possibility’ to an essential, workable tool across multiple industries, including aerospace, legal, advertising and biotech. The field of Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A), a speciality within management consulting and finance, is no different. This article describes the often complex, murky, and time consuming lifecycle of an M&A deal. Notably, a high percentage of M&A transactions do not close, or are deemed a failure for their poor outcomes post deal closure. Moreover, they are a huge drain on resources, often taking 4 - 6 months of highly specialised work and negotiation, with no guaranteed outcomes. Through 3 key value adds, smart insight, automation, and predictions, AI is set to revolutionise the M&A industry, enabling both target and buyer companies to make faster, better, safer and more compliant decisions.

How AI can assist the insurance industry in combating fraud

In recent years, forensic science has become a ‘sexy’ topic and area of interest. This is in part due to the hit-TV series, CSI, but also due to a proliferation of fascinating specialisations within forensics. This article introduces the contemporary field of forensics, and then analyses to what extent Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be of service to this industry. The challenges and prospects faced by forensic science in relation to AI-power software solutions is discussed, touching on issues of big data, distributed environments, building statistical evidence, pattern recognition and data sovereignty.
