Lion Finance (ISIN GB00BF4HYT85) said on October 15, 2026 that its Bank of Georgia subsidiary had been named the World's Best AI Bank 2026. According to Investegate, the bank received eleven awards across global and regional categories, while 99 percent of unsecured loans were approved and disbursed in under 15 seconds.

AI performance has measurable proof

The award is more than a branding event because the release attached operating metrics to the recognition. Bank of Georgia's AI assistant independently resolved more than 80 percent of customer queries, with a 91 percent satisfaction score, according to Investegate.

Those figures sit alongside the group's latest reported operating performance. In the second quarter of 2026, revenue increased from GEL 1,024.473 million to GEL 1,219.525 million, a 19.04 percent rise, while net income climbed from GEL 513.286 million to GEL 618.8 million, a 20.56 percent increase, according to Simply Wall St.

What does the award measure?

The central investor question is whether faster digital service can support profitable growth. The second-quarter figures provide a quantified comparison, while the AI data show how the technology is being used in lending and customer support rather than presented only as a strategy theme.
