Google<\/a>\u00a0is launching\u00a0Google Finance<\/a>\u00a0in Europe this week, part of an ongoing, AI-focused expansion.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis reimagined experience offers a suite of powerful capabilities designed to help you better understand the financial world,\u201d the tech giant said in a\u00a0blog post<\/a>\u00a0Monday (May 11).<\/p>\n

According to the post, the offering includes artificial intelligence (AI)-powered research, charting tools, real-time intelligence, and the ability to follow corporate earnings calls lives while also getting AI-generated insights.<\/p>\n

Google launched Google Finance in the U.S. last August and India in November, and said last month that it planned to expand the tool to\u00a0100 other countries<\/a>, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, Indonesia, Japan and Mexico.<\/p>\n

This is happening amid increased, though sometimes cautious, use of artificial intelligence as a financial tool, a trend chronicled by PYMNTS Intelligence late last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cAI adoption inside finance today is highest where rules are clear and outcomes are measurable,\u201d said in that report, titled\u00a0\u201cCFOs Are Letting AI Into the Finance Function, Carefully<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNearly half of CFOs already rely on the technology to monitor cash positions, audit readiness, anomaly detection and compliance oversight. These functions benefit from automation because it reduces manual effort without needing judgment calls that could materially affect financial outcomes,\u201d the report continued.<\/p>\n

Chief financial officers are becoming comfortable with AI assisting with judgment-driven analysis, as long as final authority stays with humans. More than half said they would accept AI-generated recommendations on liquidity and payment timing.\u00a0Upwards of 40%<\/a>\u00a0of CFOs said they trust the technology to handle audit logs, integrity alerts and variance analysis.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis signals a shift from automation to advisory support,\u201d PYMNTS added. \u201cHowever, willingness declines sharply when recommendations require coordination across multiple systems. CFOs want AI to frame decisions, not execute them when operational risk is high.\u201d<\/p>\n

Google Finance\u2019s latest expansion follows last week\u2019s announcement of Google\u2019s new AI- powered\u00a0bidding and budgeting tools<\/a>\u00a0for Search and Shopping.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy pairing smarter bidding strategies with flexible budgets, you can capture high-value opportunities without the manual heavy lifting,\u201d\u00a0Josh Braverman<\/a>, group product manager, Google Ads, wrote in a blog post announcing the tools.<\/p>\n

One tool currently in beta is journey-aware bidding, which lets advertisers track the path from leads to sales, thus helping Google AI understand complex lead generation customer journeys.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy seeing the whole picture, Google AI can better predict what works and optimize your performance,\u201d Braverman said in the post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Google\u00a0is launching\u00a0Google Finance\u00a0in Europe this week, part of an ongoing, AI-focused expansion. \u201cThis reimagined experience offers a suite…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":436518,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[345,133,42,43,262,40,38,41,39,264],"class_list":["post-436517","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-ai","tag-google","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-pymnts-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories","tag-whats-hot"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/436517","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=436517"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/436517\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/436518"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=436517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=436517"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=436517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
