Blockchain in Financial Services: An AI-Driven Transformation

Abstract

ABSTRACT Block chain technology has rapidly evolved from a crypto currency backbone to a transformative infrastructure for financial services. Coupled with Artificial Intelligence (AI), it promises to revolutionize how financial institutions operate—enhancing transparency, security, efficiency, and compliance. We employ a mixed-method approach using qualitative interviews, quantitative performance analysis, and case studies to explore the scope of this technological convergence. Our results highlight significant operational gains and outline challenges that must be navigated for successful adoption.
