Bank of America pointed to three paths — artificial intelligence-driven solutions, global payments, and personalized financial planning tools — that propelled clients’ digital engagement with the institution to record levels last year.
This week, Bank of America announced its clients connected with their finances approximately 30 billion times last year through a combination of digital logins and proactive alerts, marking a 14% year-over-year increase.
