Περίληψη: Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are increasingly important in financial technology (FinTech) applications involving large datasets, uncertainty, and complex decision-making. First, this paper presents a review of AI- and ML-based approaches in FinTech from 2010 to 2025, with particular emphasis on the relationship between predictive analytics and optimization-based decision-making. The review identifies two major research streams: (i) predictive AI/ML models for financial forecasting, stock price prediction, risk management, and fraud detection and (ii) optimization approaches for constrained financial decision problems, including portfolio optimization, asset–liability management, and risk-based decision-making. These two streams have largely evolved independently, which creates challenges in real financial environments, where uncertainty in predictions directly affects decision quality. Secondly, the paper also provides a decision-oriented perspective on how AI/ML-based predictions can support optimization under uncertainty and practical financial constraints. It highlights the role of uncertainty-aware optimization, simulation-based methods, and hybrid approaches such as simheuristics in improving the robustness of financial decision-making. Finally, the paper identifies open research directions toward integrated financial decision-support frameworks that combine predictive analytics, optimization, and simulation to address dynamic and uncertain FinTech environments.
