“Interest rate change clauses which grant the credit institution an unlimited power to change the interest rate in the case of long-term savings contracts are invalid.”
– Judgment from the German Federal Court of Justice of 17 February 2004 – XI ZR 140/03
The artificial intelligence semantha® supports German banks in checking existing savings contracts for invalid interest rate change clauses in order to be able to calculate and form appropriate provisions.
In our blog post „Interest rate adjustment clauses: With artificial intelligence, banks quickly gain clarity on their contractual situation“ you will find a detailed explanation.
Legal clarity made simple
With Germany’s Federal Court of Justice’s ruling on premium savings contracts, banks and customers gained legal certainty, but banks are now faced with an enormous additional workload. Heidelberger Volksbank would have had to check a large amount of contracts manually and within a very short period of time to avoid lawsuits.
semantha® helps precisely determine necessary provisions and thus realistically present the risk in the balance sheet. All this in a fraction of the time.

The most frequently implemented use cases in finance.
Correspondence Automation
In your company masses of correspondences have to be processed and allocated every day. Each mail must be analysed at great expense before the next step can be taken. It is quite possible to assign certain categories, but the problem is that similar facts are formulated very differently, which apparently makes it impossible to automate this process.
-
With semantha® you can automatically classify and assign incoming letters, no matter how they are formulated, regardless of the choice of words.
-
With our data extraction, you can easily extract relevant data points from Correspondences and process them further. The combination with semantha’s® natural language understanding is particularly helpful, as it allows you to find and extract data points in specific contexts.
Document Analysis & Comparison
In your company, documents have to be reviewed regularly and with a high manual effort. In most cases, the content to be reviewed is similar. The problem is that every document is worded and structured differently, which makes automation impossible.
-
In our library, you can define content for which new incoming documents are to be analysed against. semantha® finds the passages based on their meaning, regardless of the choice of words and without any “training” with your data. Thus, relevant contents of a document are found quickly and efficiently.
-
Using our Compare, you can compare already reviewed documents with new incoming documents. semantha® shows you which content matches and which content is missing – out of the box and without time-consuming training with your data.
-
In addition, you can use our Compare feature to compare different versions of a document. semantha® shows you which contents have remained the same and which areas have been changed or removed completely.

Knowledge Management
Your company has large masses of unstructured text documents. One of the daily challenges is to search these documents for specific content, whereby normal search functions only offer a simple “keyword search” that does not lead to the desired results. This is particularly due to the fact that, on the one hand, it is not known exactly how a topic was formulated and, on the other hand, the same topics are also formulated quite differently in the various documents.
-
Bulk Claim Analysis & Comparison
In your company, many procedures on the same topic are processed. Despite always having similar presentations in the pleas and repetitive correspondence with companies, insurers and clients, these documents have to be read and analysed at great expense. Although content can be divided into certain categories, the problem is that similar issues are formulated in completely different ways, which makes it seem impossible to automate the processes.
You have to reply to numerous pleas, such as lawsuits or statements of defence, and repeatedly come across similar submissions. In most cases, you can use excerpts from past responses as a basis for the new plea. However, the classification of the individual submissions of the newly received pleas is the biggest challenge.
