La norma final de la Ley Dodd-Frank 1071, publicada el 30 de marzo de 2023, un día antes de la finalización prevista de la enmienda crítica a la Ley de Igualdad de Oportunidades de Crédito (ECOA), supone un cambio radical para las Entidades que ofrecen financiación a pequeñas empresas.

La norma obliga a las entidades financieras a comunicar determinados datos sobre préstamos a pequeñas empresas, incluidos datos demográficos sobre pequeñas empresas propiedad de mujeres, de minorías y de personas LGBTQI+. Estos datos serán utilizados por la Oficina de Protección Financiera del Consumidor (CFPB) para hacer cumplir las leyes de préstamos justos y para identificar las necesidades de la comunidad y el acceso al crédito. Los datos recogidos en virtud de la norma también se utilizarán para desarrollar nuevos programas e iniciativas de apoyo a las pequeñas empresas.

Amazement. Excitement. Controversy. Fear.By now, you’ve probably heard of ChatGPT, the revolutionary artificial intelligence (AI) technology that has stunned the world in 2023. Perhaps you’ve even tried out the free version of this powerful tool to draft an email to your boss or write a poem about your pet.

As exciting as generative AI applications like ChatGPT are, they’ve also triggered fear and uncertainty across many spheres, from education, where many school districts have banned students from using AI to write their term papers, to the financial services industry, where major banks like JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and Wells Fargo have prohibited their employees from using AI for corporate communications, citing compliance concerns. Meanwhile, other financial institutions, such as Goldman Sachs, are experimenting with generative AI tools internally to help write and test code, which has some developers worried about their roles.

While conversational AI tools like ChatGPT, Jasper and Google Bard have suddenly captured the public’s imagination, the underlying technology is not new. And it’s certainly not the only—or best—use case for generative AI in banking.

In recent years, German banks have been facing several challenges, including changing customer demands, regulatory changes, and changing socio-economic trends. As a result, the German banking sector is undergoing a period of rapid transformation, and banks are having to adapt in order to remain competitive and profitable in the future.

The banks that are best equipped to emerge and succeed in an uncertain future are those who are embracing an innovation mind set and embedding flexibility and a positive attitude toward change into their organizational fabric. One bank leading the way is Hamburg Commercial Bank (HCOB).

With representation across Germany’s metropolitan regions and in select markets in Europe, HCOB is a Hamburg-based commercial bank and specialty financier, serving commercial clients and financing projects in the real estate and shipping sector, as well as in the renewable energy and infrastructure industry.
