In today’s volatile interest rate environment and tightening capital requirements, European banks face unprecedented pressure to optimize Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA). This case study reveals how a Spanish systemic bank achieved a 22% reduction in RWA by deploying explainable AI decision engines, all while complying with the latest European Central Bank (ECB) and Basel IV standards.
The Challenge in Modern Banking Collections
European banks face a perfect storm: shrinking margins, rising delinquency, and tightening regulations.
- 35% of defaults are avoidable with better targeting (ECB)
- 67% of collection attempts fail due to wrong channels/messaging (McKinsey)
- €6.8M+ in fines issued in Germany alone for non-compliant collections (BaFin)
