Beyond Pilots: How Persistent is Scaling AI Across BFSI

Everyone talks about AI. Persistent is already delivering it: in production, at scale, inside banks and insurers. In this conversation, Barath Narayanan, Global BFSI and Europe Geo Head, explains the lens Persistent applies to every engagement — AI for Engineering, AI for Data and AI for Business Process. He backs it with real proof: legacy COBOL-to-Duck Creek migrations completed in weeks, a French bank’s Teradata estate modernized with the iAura platform and auto-insurance claims digitized through agentic AI. He closes on what comes next: an AI-first culture, matched by an uncompromising commitment to AI safety and responsible adoption.
