Center-invest Bank’s AI Models Help the Regulator Make Forecasts

2026年03月17日

Center-invest Bank is actively contributing to forming an accurate picture of the regional and national economic development. On a monthly basis, the bank participates in the macroeconomic survey conducted by the Southern Main Branch of the Bank of Russia, providing the regulator with high-quality data for strategic decision-making.

Center-invest Bank’s proprietary AI solutions enable real-time analysis of current macroeconomic indicators — including GDP dynamics, inflation rates, investment activity, and consumer demand — and build long-term forecasts up to 2028.

The information collected and processed using artificial intelligence is submitted to the Bank of Russia. This data serves as an important supporting tool for the regulator: it helps verify the central bank’s own economic models, which are then taken into account when setting the key interest rate and other monetary policy parameters.

"Participation in the surveys of the Southern Main Branch of the Bank of Russia is not only about our expertise but also about responsibility. Using artificial intelligence allows us to improve the accuracy and depth of our analysis, reduce the influence of human factors, and offer the regulator the most relevant economic development scenarios. We are pleased that our work contributes to a more balanced and effective policy aimed at financial stability and sustainable regional and national development, leveraging fundamentally new products and technologies," commented Igor Ivashchenko, Deputy Chairman of executive board of the Management Board of Center-invest Bank.

Earlier, Center-invest Bank, together with the Department of Economics of Rostov-on-Don, completed a large‑scale project to implement an analytical digital platform. The result of this collaboration was a management dashboard — a digital tool that provides the Mayor and senior city officials with objective, up‑to‑date information on the socio‑economic development of the Don capital in real time.
