Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) – simply referring to the intelligence exhibited by machines, as opposed to natural intelligence displayed by humans – is reshaping business, economy, and society. However, so far, knowledge in this field is still limited and highly fragmented, and primarily technical-oriented. In addition, the literature review demonstrates that academia has offered limited application-oriented research to support firms and managers implementing AI. This paper is based on a qualitative meta-analysis to identify the various areas of application of AI in financial risk assessment. The analysis identified Credit Risk & Credit Scoring, Forecasting & Prediction, Security, and Fraud Detection as major research areas of AI in finance. Furthermore, this paper identified how different AI applications are applied in business and demonstrated the impact of these applications. In addition, this research highlights promising AI applications for businesses and applications that are currently not suitable for implementation. Finally, promising research opportunities in AI-related business research are outlined. The description is necessary to advance the current technical-dominated research to include business-oriented research and application-specific research on artificial intelligence.
