Financial Wellness Agent

Proactive, opt-in financial-health nudges and next-best-action.

Watches cash-flow patterns per customer cohort and composes a nudge on a signal: an upcoming overdraft, an idle balance that should earn interest, a recurring subscription. Every nudge is frequency-capped, suppressible, and audited for fairness so it never tips into dark-pattern territory.

Checks and boundaries

What must be tested or reviewed

  1. 01UDAAP + fair-treatment review: framing stays even-handed, suitability checked per offer.
  2. 02Frequency caps and an absolute opt-out the agent must honor.
  3. 03Champion/challenger on message variants; engagement vs. complaint rate tracked.
  4. 04Fairness checks so nudges land evenly across protected segments.

Human authority
