Abstract
Techniques are disclosed utilizing cognitive computing to improve banking experiences. A user's financial account(s) may be monitored to predict when a surplus of funds is unnecessarily present and for how long this will likely be the case. Once this is determined, techniques include automatically drafting funds from the account to another account having a higher interest rate where the funds may accrue more interest. The techniques also include predicting when an overdraft may occur and taking appropriate action when such a prediction is made. Predictions may be based upon different weighted inputs used in accordance with a predictive modeling system, which may attempt to predict for a particular user, location, and retailer, whether the user will spend an anticipated amount in excess of the user's current balance. If so, passive (e.g., notifications) and active (e.g., transferring cover funds) actions may be performed.
