Produits, solutions et services pour les entreprises
Huawei has unveiled two new products designed to accelerate digital transformation in the financial sector.
Beyond ICT infrastructure construction, Huawei also aims to assist various industries in maximising their infrastructural capabilities, improving enterprise process efficiency, and continuously innovating services towards digitalisation.
Huawei Software, responsible for developing these new products, focuses on building innovative digital services and operating systems, cooperating with carriers and ecosystem partners to build digital infrastructure. They collaborate with carriers and ecosystem partners to construct digital infrastructure and support the digitalisation efforts of multiple industries.
The overall mission of digitalisation is to enable companies to better engage with consumers and provide enhanced value to stay ahead of the competition and ignite the passion for growth and innovation in the next generation.
With years of experience in fundamental technical research and development, Huawei has built a cutting-edge AI-based Contact Centre (AICC) product that combines its overall AI capabilities and serves to improve customer service efficiency and user experience.
Additionally, Mobile Money 2.0 is Huawei’s new generation mobile finance solution which includes mobile wallet, mobile payment, and microfinance capabilities. With the development of AICC and Mobile Money, Huawei Software aims to benefit customers’ IT infrastructure by driving digital efficiencies.
Huawei Software has served over three billion subscribers in more than 170 countries and has been investing 15 to 20 per cent of the revenue into R&D annually to accelerate digitalisation, build agile operations and develop an open financial ecosystem to achieve business success together with customers and partners.
Maurice Ma, president of Huawei software business department, announced these new products at the Huawei Intelligent Finance Summit (HiFS) in Shanghai, China in early June. The overall theme of this year’s HiFS was “Navigate Change, Shaping Smarter Finance TOGETHER”. The conference brought together industry leaders to share their expert insights on digital trends that will shape the future of mobile finance.
During his speech titled “Digital Engagement Trends and AI Applications in the Financial Industry”, Ma discussed the latest digital engagement trends within the financial industry and how AI enables the next generation of digital experience before introducing AICC and Mobile Money.
The financial industry is undergoing a rapid transformation towards digitalisation, with mobile devices becoming the main touchpoint for users to access financial services. This shift will lead to an increase of requirement for longer service duration, higher frequency, real-time, and better intelligent engagement experiences.
Ma emphasised the importance of improving customer experience as the driving force behind the future evolution of the financial industry. “By utilising AI-assisted digital agents, we can build smart assistants and provide large-screen services to bank branches, and therefore offer new experiences to customers,” he said. “In addition, we can use AI voice robots to conduct e-training for internal employees, to improve employee skills and reduce training costs.”
Traditionally, the financial industry primarily relied on structured text data for customer interactions. However, with changing customer behaviour and technological advancements, a significant amount of unstructured audio and video data has been generated via customer interactions. AI-based technologies will be crucial in identifying, processing, and utilising both structured and unstructured interaction data. Future AI interaction technologies, including AIGC, large language models, voice robots, and digital humans, will rapidly be developed to enable personalised, accurate, and real-time services for users.
Huawei AICC continuously improves customer service experience and sales by integrating multiple channels such as VOLTE video and various social media to achieve an overall cost reduction of 30 per cent per call through intelligent implementation in every scenario. Huawei AICC supports multiple deployment modes with private, public and hybrid cloud to meet our partners’ personalised requirements. Since Huawei AICC is developed based on low-code enabled platform, the product’s various scenario-based interfaces can also facilitate secondary development for partners and can also be utilised across a wide range of scenarios, including telemarketing, E-KYC, and e-training.
In summary, there are three key takeaways for Huawei AICC. Firstly, leveraging Huawei's extensive experience in the telecom industry, AICC combines fundamental technical research and development with cloud-native architecture to deliver carrier-class large capacity, high reliability, and resilience. Secondly, Huawei has made continuous investments in AI technology, with significant research achievements in the field of artificial intelligence with 2012 Lab. Huawei AICC is an enterprise-level software product that significantly improves customer service efficiency and user experience. Additionally, based on accumulated multimedia technology in the telecommunications field, Huawei AICC can upgrade traditional voice customer service centre, providing a better user experience and efficiently closing the business process loop.

During his speech, Maurice Ma highlighted that new technologies such as big data, machine learning, AI, blockchain will drive rapid innovation in mobile financial services. With the widespread adoption of those innovative technologies, the Mobile Financial Services sector is undergoing a dramatic transformation.

As a member of the World Economic Forum Edison Alliance, Huawei aims to benefit 500 million people through financial inclusion by 2025, to open the door to the digital economy and unlock $60 billion in new market share.
Maurice Ma emphasised the need for a better ecosystem that requires multi-party collaboration for user acquisition focused on digital life, continuous service innovation, as well as integration and operation of multi-technology solution. Huawei believes that uniting the entire ecosystem and fostering innovation together is the only way to achieve success in a diverse and uncertain marketplace.
