About
FinAi News is a trade publication from Royal Media that tracks how artificial intelligence is used in financial services. It is the fourth name of a brand running since 2009: Bank360, then Bank Innovation, then Bank Automation News, renamed in October 2025.
Sections and products Coverage is split into Banking, Lending, Payments, Risk & Security and Strategy, with a focus on where AI is deployed, what it does to margins and which compliance questions it raises. The brand runs the FinAi Banking Summit and FinAi Lending Summit, and offers a podcast, a webinar library and a beta AI News Tool. A premium tier unlocks unlimited access.
Sample stories Recent articles include "US banks block AI agents attempting to move money for customers", "PNC quietly building AI agents that don't rely on tech vendors", a report on AI helping Fifth Third find $2 billion to $3 billion in extra consumer balances for lending decisions, and the funding round of Go.AI at $85 million.
For payments teams The agent-initiated payments story and bank fraud controls are the pieces that matter for PSPs and wallets. It is a US-bank view of AI, useful for fintechs selling into banks.
Payments angle
Reporting on AI agents moving money, bank AI deployment and fraud and risk uses of AI, relevant to PSPs that sell to or compete with banks.
