EXPLAINABLE AI (XAI) FOR TRANSPARENT FINANCIAL DECISION-MAKING: A TECHNICAL FRAMEWORK
Keywords:
Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), Financial Decision-Making, Regulatory Compliance, Model Interpretability, Risk Management SystemsAbstract
The implementation of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) in financial services has fundamentally transformed the landscape of decision-making processes across banking and investment operations. This comprehensive article analysis examines the technical architecture, implementation methodologies, and regulatory compliance frameworks that underpin successful XAI deployments in financial institutions. The article investigates the integration of various explanation frameworks, including LIME and SHAP, evaluating their effectiveness in providing transparent decision rationales while maintaining operational efficiency. Through extensive article analysis of real-world implementations, the article demonstrates how financial institutions have successfully balanced the competing demands of model complexity, performance optimization, and interpretability. The findings reveal significant improvements in customer satisfaction, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency through the adoption of explainable AI systems. The investigation encompasses multiple dimensions of implementation, from technical architecture to organizational change management, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding the transformation of financial decision-making processes through explainable AI technologies.
