Jas Singh, CEO Consumer Relationships at Lloyds Banking Group, comments:
"AI is rapidly transforming how people manage their money, with the potential for millions of consumers to feel more confident and in control of their personal finances. From everyday budgeting to planning for the future, we're already seeing people use the technology to make smarter choices and build financial resilience.
"But as AI becomes a bigger part of our financial lives, trust is the next frontier. People want to be sure the information they receive is accurate, secure and truly tailored to their needs. That's why banks have a vital role - not just in providing cutting-edge technology, but in combining it with trusted expertise and a deep understanding of our customers.
"As we continue to innovate, our focus is on building tools people can genuinely rely on - helping everyone to benefit from the confidence and clarity that digital solutions bring."
