The Art of Possible
Enable Intelligent Debt Collection at NatWest with AI
Loan Collections is one of the key activities for any banking organization. The common challenges faced in the collection processes are:
-
No early warning mechanism to predict/identify disputes and delinquent accounts
-
Risk segmentation of accounts based on rudimentary statistical models is inefficient
-
Lack of customer centric-collection strategy
The overall impact is on customer loyalty and affects the topline and the bottom line of the company. Typically, the collection process is not customer-centric. Most outsourced agencies for collection still have traditional call center setups, which use rudimentary risk segmentation methods without any regard to the behavioural aspects of the customer.
The need is to have a data-driven, intelligent, more accurate risk segmentation and rank ordering of customers and an appropriate collection strategy for customers in order to improve the collections and reduce delinquency and charge-offs.
Enabled by FinXEdge Collect
EdgeVerve’s FinXEdge Collect is a data-driven intelligent application powered by advanced machine learning. It helps in effective collections by providing:
- AI based segmentation model to identify customers upfront who have a high chance of missing / delaying payment
-
AI based recommendations on contact strategies, including time and channel to:

-
AI models to:
- Predict disputes early
- Predict possible reason for disputes

Re-imagine customer experience at NatWest with AI and Automation
One of the important objectives for any bank is to improve customer experience and enhance overall operational efficiency. It is easy for any organization to overspend on offering a great customer experience if operational efficiencies are not continuously improved. Customer service helpdesks typically see a significant number of requests being made for repetitive queries. Answering these queries take up a lot of agent time. Freeing up agent time by improving operational efficiencies can lead to more opportunities for improving customer experience and satisfaction. When a service call is received by the support helpdesk team, they must juggle between a number of applications & knowledge sources to get the right information. This leads to inefficiencies, high call handling time, low problem resolution rates and overall dissatisfaction for the customers. To top this all, when SMEs and Team leads working in a bank’s customer service helpdesks leave the organization, it leads to a huge risk of knowledge/information loss.
The need is to deploy tools that will significantly ease the pressure of the helpdesk team and make them ‘super-efficient individuals’ to handle customers’ queries. It should enhance the teams’ productivity and reduce the learning curve to handle the ever changing IT landscapes and processes of banks.

Create intelligent document processes at NatWest with AI
68% of Financial Institutions are struggling to derive insights from their documents
It’s no surprise that banks generate massive amounts of data – 90% of data is unstructured and locked in documents. Maintaining customer information is of the utmost importance. Capturing, extracting, classifying, and verifying information in unstructured documents like invoice, documents involved in letter of credit (to facilitate payment between an importer and exporter) processing, etc. is time-consuming and daunting.
Banks and financial institutions are deploying Intelligent Document Processing solutions that leverage OCR and Machine Learning capabilities to make sense of the voluminous data across varied document formats, enhancing productivity, speed, and precision. From the management of contracts to processing customer information, utilizing AI technologies helps banks gain a competitive advantage.
