Background of the Study
Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized many industries, and the banking sector is no exception. In Nigerian banks, AI technologies are increasingly being applied to enhance decision-making processes, improve customer service, and optimize internal operations (Ogunlade & Ajayi, 2024). Managerial accounting, which involves the analysis of financial information to support decision-making, budgeting, and performance evaluation, can benefit from AI by providing real-time data analytics, forecasting, and predictive insights. GTBank, one of Nigeria’s leading banks, has been at the forefront of adopting AI technologies to enhance its managerial accounting processes. AI tools, such as machine learning algorithms and data mining techniques, allow for more accurate financial forecasting, cost control, and performance evaluation (Olalekan et al., 2023). However, the full impact of AI on managerial accounting practices in Nigerian banks is still emerging. This study aims to examine how the integration of AI influences managerial accounting processes at GTBank and its effect on operational efficiency and financial performance.
Statement of the Problem
While AI presents numerous opportunities for improving managerial accounting practices, many Nigerian banks, including GTBank, face challenges in fully leveraging AI technologies due to concerns over data privacy, the complexity of AI systems, and the high costs of implementation. Additionally, there is limited research on the specific effects of AI on managerial accounting processes in Nigerian banks. This study seeks to assess the impact of AI integration on managerial accounting at GTBank, with a focus on how it enhances or disrupts accounting practices such as budgeting, cost analysis, and financial decision-making.
