Technological Evolution and Financial Markets

With the arrival of the pandemic, digitalisation underwent a strong increase which led to an acceleration of technological evolution. Companies working in the financial markets have also adopted new technologies, among which particular note deserves artificial intelligence which processes enormous quantities of data in a very short time with various methodologies, including neural networks and machine learning. These new technologies allow in particular the detection of anomalous data. These models finally applied to new data predict what will happen with high accuracy, leading users to make informed choices, but based on completely automated predictive models. This represents the future which, through Artificial Intelligence, Chatbots and Expert Advisors, will revolutionize the financial markets, supported by adequate regulation. In this study we try to take stock of the current situation and some predictions for the future.
