At GTC Berlin, banks, payment companies and financial data providers are showing what production-scale intelligence looks like \u2014 built on NVIDIA accelerated computing, powered by open weight models and running on their own infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Revolut<\/span> is rebuilding its technology stack on a single foundation model <\/span>PRAGMA<\/span><\/a>, powered by NVIDIA accelerated computing. Using the <\/span>NVIDIA cuDF<\/span><\/a> toolkit and <\/span>Dynamo-Triton software<\/span><\/a> on <\/span>NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs<\/span><\/a>, Revolut is scaling PRAGMA in production, servicing an initial 80 million customers and engineered to scale 3x.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRevolut processes billions of transactions \u2014 the opportunity was always there, but the question was whether foundation models could operate at that scale and across domains. PRAGMA answers that,\u201d said Pavel Nesterov, head of AI at Revolut. \u201cBuilt in collaboration with NVIDIA, it\u2019s the clearest proof yet that the gap between a research breakthrough and a production banking system can be closed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Training on Accelerated Infrastructure<\/b><\/h2>\n

Starling Bank<\/span>, the first bank to train an agentic model on U.K. sovereign cloud infrastructure, has developed \u201cStarling Intelligence\u201d \u2014 the intelligence layer that underpins its AI capability \u2014 on <\/span>Civo\u2019s<\/span> U.K. cloud using the bank\u2019s own transaction data.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lloyds Banking Group<\/span> built <\/span>ATUM<\/span><\/a>, a transaction foundation model that converts billions of banking transactions into reusable intelligence \u2014 accelerated with NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPUs and improving efficiency across bank-wide use cases.<\/span><\/p>\n

SBS<\/span> launched a banking sovereign intelligence platform so banks can run generative and agentic models without their data leaving their own walls.<\/span><\/p>\n

Open Models at a Fraction of the Cost<\/b><\/h2>\n

Open weight models give European financial institutions proprietary intelligence built on data they own, at costs they control. NVIDIA\u2019s accelerated computing platform is the engine running beneath them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Neobank <\/span>bunq\u2019s<\/span> agentic assistant Finn now runs on open weight models. Powered by NVIDIA accelerated computing, deploying on <\/span>Nebius<\/span> matches the quality of leading closed models at 60% of the cost per answer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

NatWest<\/span> is building technology designed to recognize the full range of British accents, dialects and financial terminology, developed with NVIDIA\u2019s speech models, including Nemotron 3.5 ASR.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Modulr<\/span> is building specialized models for distinct parts of payment operations, based on the NVIDIA Nemotron-3-Ultra-550B open model.<\/span><\/p>\n

Santander<\/span> is an early adopter of the new NVIDIA Kumo family of open weight foundation models for structured financial data, using them to build specialized intelligence for core banking workloads.<\/span><\/p>\n

Accelerated Computing Transforms Financial Research<\/b><\/h2>\n

LSEG<\/span> is working with NVIDIA to help financial institutions analyze large volumes of historical tick data up to 10x faster with the <\/span>Polars GPU engine<\/span><\/a>, accelerated by NVIDIA cuDF on NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell GPUs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

RavenPack<\/span> built a dataset generation pipeline on Bigdata.com that takes a plain-language research hypothesis and returns a labeled, backtest-ready dataset \u2014 running on a fine-tuned NVIDIA Nemotron model. Investors can use these datasets to identify, analyze and visualize market trends.<\/span><\/p>\n

Speeding Data Pipelines to Improve Fraud Detection\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs and NVIDIA cuDF help accelerate data processing across multi-terabyte-scale, siloed, regulated sources, compressing the time from data to decision for fraud and other scenarios.<\/span><\/p>\n

HSBC<\/span> provides near-real-time client insights that support customer processes and on-demand decision-making while minimizing risk and fraud, powered by 5x faster data processing on <\/span>Starburst Enterprise\u2019s GPU Engine<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Stripe<\/span>, a global provider of programmable financial services, sees 42x faster data pipelines and 92% cost savings for its Stripe Radar fraud-detection platform with NVIDIA GPU-accelerated Ray Data in offline testing. This enables Stripe Radar\u2019s machine learning pipelines to continuously optimize model training and improve fraud detection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
