Financial risk management is a great industry for data science. I've been doing it for 15+ years. It is amazing the data rich environment which includes credit bureaus, customer transaction history, call center dynamics, and of course finances. It is a gold mine of opportunity to find new and fresh ways to observe the organization. This is also what makes risk management difficult as well. There is so much to know. LLMs are going to change risk management as it is changing every other industry. It will be interesting to see where it is headed.
