BNP Paribas partnered with Mistral to accelerate its KYC onboarding process from weeks to days and provide AI access to 65,000 users.
The challenge
BNP Paribas needed to accelerate its Know Your Customer (KYC) onboarding process, which traditionally took weeks to complete. The bank required a solution that could deliver productivity gains while maintaining strict data control and compliance.
The solution
BNP Paribas deployed Mistral models across its own infrastructure to power global markets, sales, and customer support operations. The bank uses these models to automate research, surveillance, and document-intensive control workflows like KYC.
The results
The implementation accelerated the KYC onboarding process from weeks to days. It democratized AI access for 65,000 users and delivered productivity gains across coding, research, and surveillance tasks.
