IBK Baro is an AI-based customer consultation service introduced in 2023. The voice bot has been handling notification work for customers, such as overdue and maturity notices, as well as providing product information.

The core of this service enhancement is the integration of finance-specialized generative AI into the voice bot, enabling more natural and accurate responses than before.

As a result, the quality of customer inquiry consultations has improved. The service scope has expanded beyond simple notifications to include more complex consultation work, such as conducting surveys, identity verification, and complete sales checks.

An IBK Corporate Bank representative stated, "With the application of generative AI technology, the voice bot can now provide responses that are closer to those of a real consultant," adding, "We plan to continue expanding the application of AI technology to further enhance customer convenience."

In September, IBK Corporate Bank also introduced "Consultation Support AI," which analyzes customer conversations in real time, suggests anticipated questions and answers, and summarizes consultation content, as part of its ongoing efforts to innovate customer consultations using AI technology.
