Canadian multinational banking and financial services company Scotiabank has entered into a strategic partnership with Google Cloud.

The move is aligned with the bank’s cloud-first commitment.

Under the collaboration, Scotiabank will leverage Google Cloud’s data, analytics and AI solutions to deliver more personal and predictive banking services for its customers across the globe.

It will involve moving customer data onto Google Cloud to gain additional insights and accordingly deliver tailored services.

The use of Google Cloud’s machine learning models will also help in predicting customer offers in hours instead of several days.

Additionally, the partnership will provide Scotiabank’s engineers and data scientists with access to Google AI solutions. This will automate document and onboarding processes.
