What changes when it is banking

Permission-aware retrieval is not optional in an enterprise. If a user cannot open a document in SharePoint, the assistant must not quote it. We enforce that at the retrieval layer, not in the prompt.

In banking, core banking systems are not to be touched, so everything integrates around them. That single fact reshapes how rag & knowledge retrieval has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.

The workload we are most often asked to take on first is account opening documentation, usually integrated against Flexcube. Integration comes before intelligence. A model that cannot reach your systems of record is a demo with good manners.

Built by engineers who ship production systems, not by a practice that subcontracts the build. You own the code, the models where they are open-weight, and the documentation to run it without us.

Questions from this sector

Will this touch our core banking system?

No. We integrate through supported interfaces and read replicas, never by modifying the core.

How do you handle AML false positives?

Context enrichment and tuned scoring so alert volume matches investigator capacity, with every decision explainable in a case file.

RAG or fine-tuning?

RAG for knowledge that changes and must be cited; fine-tuning for style, format and task behaviour. Most production systems use RAG for the facts and light fine-tuning or few-shot prompting for the form.

How accurate will it be?

We build a labelled question set from your domain and report retrieval precision and answer accuracy against it. That number is the deliverable. We do not ship a system whose quality nobody has measured.

Can it respect our existing permissions?

Yes. Retrieval is filtered by the user's actual entitlements, so the assistant can never surface a document the user could not already open.

RAG & Knowledge Retrieval for banking, worth a conversation?

Tell us the workload and the regulation it sits under. We will tell you what is realistic.
