Summary

The financial sector is under increasing pressure due to new regulations aimed at protecting against financial fraud and crime, with non-compliance resulting in significant fines and reputational damage. To monitor all interactions, companies are using speech-to-text transcription to produce usable and searchable speech data for risk and scenario-based insights, flagging compliance issues. Accurate transcription is crucial to maintain confidence in compliance solutions, particularly in a global market with diverse languages. Speechmatics' speech-to-text technology uses machine learning to transcribe human-level speech into text in real-time, covering over half of the world's population, including key financial industries. The company offers a Financial Language Pack tailored to the finance sector, improving discoverability and readability of unique terms and formatting numbers, dates, and currency. With on-premises and SaaS deployment models, Speechmatics provides organizations with accurate speech data to meet regulatory obligations and improve customer experiences.
