BAQI AI - Your Investment Intelligence Platform

Winner Submission for JS Bank PROCOM '26 - AI in Banking

Transform your bank statement into personalized, Shariah-compliant investment recommendations using cutting-edge multi-agent AI and advanced machine learning.

The Problem We Solve

78% of Pakistanis don't invest because they don't know:

How much money they can actually afford to invest (baqi = leftover)
Which investments are Shariah-compliant
How to analyze PSX stocks without financial expertise

BAQI AI solves this in 60 seconds.

How It Works: The AI Journey

1. Data Exhaust Analysis - Understanding WHO You Are

Your bank statement reveals more about you than you realize. Our Data Exhaust Engine powered by Claude Sonnet 4 analyzes:

3,000+ transactions parsed and categorized
14 behavioral signals extracted:
- Day-of-week spending patterns
- Merchant loyalty clustering
- Geographic footprint detection
- Subscription identification
- Binge spending days
- Lifestyle indicators (coffee addict score, foodie score, travel frequency)
- Micro-transaction analysis (death by a thousand cuts)

Output: Your financial personality archetype (e.g., "The Urban Nomad", "The Disciplined Saver") with 7 AI-discovered actionable insights.

2️⃣ AI Classification - Finding Your BAQI (Investable Surplus)

Our Spending Analyzer uses intelligent rule-based classification to categorize every transaction:

Fixed Costs (Must Pay)

Rent, utilities, loan payments, insurance
Recurring subscriptions (Netflix, Spotify)
Cannot be reduced - these are obligations

Discretionary Spending (Necessary but Variable)

Groceries, transport, healthcare
Can be optimized - shop smarter, not less

Watery Spending (Money Leaks)

Food delivery, impulse shopping, entertainment
High reduction potential - this is where your investment money is hiding

The Algorithm:

BAQI = Total Income - (Fixed + Discretionary + Watery)
Potential BAQI = BAQI + (50% of Watery Spending)

Real Example:

Income: PKR 150,000/month
Spending: PKR 102,000 (60% fixed, 25% discretionary, 15% watery)
Current BAQI: PKR 48,000/month
Potential BAQI: PKR 55,600/month (by reducing food delivery by 50%)

3. 5-Agent AI Orchestra - Building Your Portfolio

Once we know your BAQI, 5 specialized AI agents collaborate sequentially to build your personalized investment strategy:

Agent 1: Spending Pattern Analyst

Role: Deep-dive into transaction history
Tools: TransactionQueryTool (queries Supabase database)
Output: Spending breakdown, top reduction opportunities, monthly BAQI calculation
Why Sequential: Feeds spending insights to Risk Profiler

Agent 2: Risk Assessment Specialist

Role: Determine investment risk tolerance
Input: Age, income, quiz answers, spending patterns from Agent 1

Algorithm:

Risk Score = (Quiz Average × 0.7) + (Age Factor × 0.3)
Age Factor = (65 - Age) / 65

Output: Risk profile (Conservative/Moderate/Aggressive) + allocation percentages
- Conservative: 20% equity, 60% fixed income, 20% mutual funds
- Moderate: 40% equity, 30% fixed income, 30% mutual funds
- Aggressive: 60% equity, 10% fixed income, 30% mutual funds

Agent 3: Market Sentiment Analyzer

Role: Analyze PSX market conditions using our proprietary ML prediction engine
Input: Real-time PSX data from our advanced forecasting system
Output: Market outlook (bullish/neutral/bearish), top sectors, risk flags, opportunities

Agent 4: Shariah Compliance Officer

Role: Screen all stocks for Islamic compliance
Tools: HalalScreeningTool (KMI-30 index + Meezan Bank criteria)
Screening Criteria:
- No alcohol, gambling, conventional banking interest
- Debt-to-equity ratio < 33%
- Haram revenue < 5%
Output: Halal-certified stock list with compliance reasoning

Agent 5: Investment Strategist

Role: Construct final portfolio using all agent insights
Tools: PSXPredictionTool (accesses our ML engine)
Input: BAQI amount, risk profile, market outlook, halal stocks, 21-day ML predictions
Output: 4-6 specific allocations with ticker symbols, amounts, expected returns, rationale

Why This Architecture Works:

Sequential execution ensures each agent builds on previous insights
Context passing between agents (Agent 5 sees outputs from Agents 1-4)
Tool-augmented reasoning - agents use real data, not hallucinations
Powered by Claude Sonnet 4 - state-of-the-art reasoning capabilities

4. PSX Prediction Engine - The Secret Weapon

This is where BAQI AI becomes truly sophisticated. Our 21-Day Stock Forecasting System is built on peer-reviewed research and achieves 85% directional accuracy.

Research-Backed ML Architecture

Ensemble Model (weighted voting):

SVM with RBF Kernel (35% weight) - 85% accuracy on PSX per research
Multi-Layer Perceptron (35% weight) - 85% accuracy on PSX per research
Gradient Boosting (15% weight) - feature importance analysis
Ridge Regression (15% weight) - linear baseline

Why This Ensemble?

SVM and MLP specifically validated on Pakistani stocks in academic literature
Tree models (Random Forest, XGBoost) only achieve ~53% on emerging markets
Ensemble reduces overfitting and captures different market patterns

Advanced Feature Engineering

External Features (Most Critical):

USD/PKR Exchange Rate - #1 predictor for PSX per research
- Daily close, volatility, trend, strengthening indicator
- Fetched via Yahoo Finance (PKR=X)
KSE-100 Index Beta - Explains most stock movement
- Rolling 63-day beta calculation
- Market correlation tracking
- Fetched from PSX DPS API
Commodity Prices (Oil & Gold)
- Oil affects energy sector (OGDC, PPL, PSO)
- Gold correlates with PKR weakness
- Fetched via Yahoo Finance
KIBOR Rate - Interest rate environment
- Affects banking stocks
- Manually updated from State Bank of Pakistan

Technical Indicators (Validated):

Williams %R, Disparity Index, RSI, MACD
Moving averages (SMA 20/50/200)
Momentum oscillators
Volume analysis

Preprocessing Pipeline:

Wavelet Denoising (Daubechies db4) - 30-42% RMSE reduction
Outlier Detection - Statistical anomaly removal
Seasonal Features - Ramadan effect, quarter-end patterns
Feature Scaling - StandardScaler normalization

Iterated Forecasting with Confidence Decay

Instead of direct 21-day prediction (prone to error), we use iterated forecasting:

Day 1 prediction → Update features → Day 2 prediction → ... → Day 21

Research-Backed Confidence Levels:

Day 1-7: 95% confidence (R² = 0.978-0.987)
Day 8-14: 80% confidence (R² = 0.839-0.857)
Day 15-21: 60% confidence (R² = 0.70-0.80)

Bounded AR(1) Process prevents unrealistic predictions:

Max daily return: ±3% (PSX circuit breaker is 7.5%)
Max total return: ±50% over horizon
Mean reversion to historical volatility

3-Tier Fallback System

Live ML Cache - Fresh predictions (< 24 hours old)
Seed Data - Pre-computed predictions for 5 sectors
Hardcoded Baseline - Ensures system never fails

Covered Sectors:

🏗️ Cement (LUCK - Lucky Cement)
🌾 Fertilizer (FFC - Fauji Fertilizer)
⚡ Energy (OGDC - Oil & Gas Development)
🏦 Banking (UBL - United Bank)
💻 Technology (SYS - Systems Limited)

Prediction Stability Layer

Hysteresis Algorithm prevents flip-flopping:

Requires +7% to flip TO BULLISH
Requires -7% to flip TO BEARISH
Stays in previous direction if within ±5% neutral band

Exponential Smoothing:

Smoothed = α × New Prediction + (1 - α) × Previous
α = 0.9 (extreme moves), 0.7 (normal), 0.5 (small moves)

State Persistence - Predictions remain stable across runs
