Resumo: AI is rapidly transforming markets and challenging old business models. This dissertation examines the AI-readiness of German banks, specifically in credit scoring. For this purpose, three different data types were collected. A literature review shed light on the current credit system in Germany and, as a comparison, in China. Furthermore, expert interviews disclosed the potential chances and risks of AI-driven credit assessments. A quantitative survey complemented the expert opinions with those of potential users. The results indicated that the overall readiness of AI in the German credit sector is relatively low. Experts suggested that drivers to use this technology are risk optimization and cost reduction. The identified main barrier complicating the implementation stems from regulatory requirements. While advancements are low, the collected customer data showed that most survey participants would agree to an AI-driven creditworthiness assessment. A scenario analysis combined all collected insights and demonstrated potential future developments. From a management perspective, German banks need to be faster in their technological transformation, in order to not loose competitiveness in the future.

Esta dissertação examina a prontidão da AI dos bancos alemães, especificamente na pontuação de crédito. Para este fim, foram recolhidos três tipos de dados diferentes. Uma análise bibliográfica lança luz sobre o actual sistema de crédito na Alemanha e, como comparação, na China. Além disso, entrevistas de peritos revelaram as potenciais hipóteses e riscos das avaliações de crédito orientadas para a gripe aviária. Um inquérito quantitativo complementou as opiniões dos peritos com as dos potenciais utilizadores. Os resultados indicaram que a prontidão geral da AI no sector de crédito alemão é relativamente baixa. Os peritos sugeriram que os factores que impulsionam a utilização desta tecnologia são a optimização do risco e a redução de custos. A principal barreira identificada que complica a implementação deriva de requisitos regulamentares. Embora os avanços sejam baixos, os dados recolhidos dos clientes mostraram que a maioria dos participantes no inquérito concordariam com uma avaliação de solvabilidade orientada para a gripe aviária. Uma análise de cenários combinou todas as percepções recolhidas e demonstrou potenciais desenvolvimentos futuros. De uma perspectiva de gestão, os bancos alemães precisam de ser mais rápidos na sua transformação tecnológica, a fim de não perderem competitividade no futuro.Rajsingh, PeterVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaSchmitz, Kristina2023-07-11T08:07:46Z2023-05-082023-042023-05-08T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/41642TID:203300041enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:47:13Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/41642Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:34:18.501261Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
