In today's fast-changing world, digital has become a way of life in every single field, and it is affecting all industries by providing multi-channel connectivity with people. In the banking industry, moving to the digital age allows for more improvements in customer-related operations and transaction-related operations within a day. These studies are from the perspective of customers. Customers prefer the flexibility of using digital financial services. Banking clients are commonly given technology-related services, whether they are online or not. Now, banks are focused on providing instant credit card issuance and personalized financial solution services to their clients. They are responsible for managing mass affluent clients who conduct transactions approximately the same as mass retail clients. Providing personalized services on time to individual end users will significantly enhance customer value with the banks. Customers who use the bank digitally perform more operations than those who go to the branch. Thus, they become more valuable clients for the banks. This strategic approach to the digitization process takes place in this fast-changing environment, and the major steps of this journey will be explained in the next chapters [1].

We investigate and analyze the trends and behaviors in credit card fraud attacks and transactions. First, we perform logical analysis to find hidden patterns and trends, then we leverage game-theoretical models to illustrate the potential strategies of both the attackers and defenders. Next, we demonstrate the strength of industry-scale, privacy-preserving artificial intelligence solutions by presenting the results from our recent exploratory study in this respect. Furthermore, we describe the intrinsic challenges in the context of developing reliable predictive models using more stringent protocols, and hence the need for sector-specific benchmark datasets, and provide potential solutions based on state-of-the-art privacy models. Finally, we conclude the paper by discussing future research lines on the topic, and also the possible real-life implications. The paper underscores the challenges in creating robust AI models for the banking sector. The results also showcase that privacy-preserving AI models can potentially augment sharing capabilities while mitigating liability issues of public-private sector partnerships [1].

Innovations in computing and communication technologies are reshaping finance. The seismic changes are casting uncertainty about the future of financial services. On one hand, fintech evangelists project a rosy future, asserting that the fast-moving algorithms can deliver low-cost financial services intuitively, customized to meet robust consumer expectations. On the other hand, many finance veterans fret that the traditional banking model could disintermediate, bleeding banks via a ‘death by a thousand cuts’, reducing them to passive portfolio holders with no direct customer relationship, eclipsed by digital giants which use their enormous treasure troves of customer data to offer banking as an added service with nearly free cost. Amidst the upbeat technological promises and apocalyptic forebodings, there are two constant, mostly agreed-upon, truths. The first is the vital importance of data. Advances in the internet, cloud computing, and record-keeping technologies are producing an ‘exponential growth in the volume and detail of data’. Some of this big data are personal information. Smartphones are deployed in almost all developed and emerging economies, serving as little spies; tracking, recording location histories, social networks, and app usage of their unsuspecting owners; often with a great degree of precision. ‘People are walking data-factories’ in this ‘mobile digital society’. Data are the fermentation of these global exchanges, electronic commerce and communication, and financial transactions. To just take Facebook as an example, it shares 30 million people a day through updates and posts, hosting personal information on 2.23 billion users. To the alarm of the uninformed public, much of this information is available for commercial harvest. The second constant is the rise of intelligent solutions. Consumers today—be it disclosed or not—are fed tailored clothes, music, film, holiday packages—almost anything you like, notably dynamic pricing, varying in accordance with individual profiles, or personalized search results. The availability of powerful computers has enabled comparable applications that are intended to make the system more responsive to their customer profiles and desires, or to capitalize competitive business possibilities. Such changes will transform the financial industry and occupy a prominent position among the mechanisms of policy competition, reshaping the way in which financial services are bestowed and led on the demand side.
