The convergence thesis — and how Blosfect is engineering for it across five product lines.

Research & Strategy
Artificial intelligence and financial services are converging at a pace that few industries have ever witnessed. By 2030, AI will sit inside almost every credit decision, fraud check, KYC review, treasury workflow, and customer interaction across the global financial system.
The convergence thesis
Three forces drive the convergence: declining inference costs, regulator-friendly model interpretability, and the explosion of structured financial data. Each of these unlocks new product surface area. Together they redraw the map of where fintech value will accrue.
