Hong Kong Central Bank Examines AI's Impact on Banking Workforce
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) is actively evaluating the influence of artificial intelligence (AI) on the banking sector's workforce. As AI technology evolves, the central bank emphasizes the importance of preparing employees to "coexist with technology in the AI era," according to HKMA Deputy Chief Executive Arthur Yuen.
On May 23, the HKMA encouraged financial institutions to develop workforce training and development strategies to address AI's growing presence in banking.
