Plus more exclusive insights to help you stay ahead of the curve!
| → | Deutsche Bank Private Bank has deployed an agentic Source of Wealth solution across Singapore and Hong Kong and estimates a 30% uplift in client onboarding: KYC is now where agentic AI proves its return, inside the most regulated workflow a bank runs. |
| → | Citi's CEO describes a race to shore up the firm's perimeter against AI-related threats: cyber resilience has become a board budget line, not an IT project. |
| → | Anthropic's Claude Opus 5.5 runs 40% cheaper than Opus 5 on typical workloads: the unit economics of agentic automation are improving faster than most bank business cases assumed. |
| → | Goldman Sachs projects AI infrastructure spending by the five largest US hyperscalers to reach $1.2 trillion in 2027, up from $800 billion this year: compute capacity will not be our constraint, and operating model readiness will. |
| → | Promenaut has gone into production at HSBC, orchestrating agents across specialised operations workflows: orchestration is becoming the control layer banks must govern, not simply procure. |
| → | OpenAI is offering banks a way to bridge legacy core systems without billion-dollar rewrites: every core modernisation roadmap deserves a second look before the next tranche is funded. |
| → | Six global banks have published principles on agentic commerce, warning that consumers are unsure AI agents act on their side: trust and liability frameworks will decide who captures agent-driven payments. |
| → | The Eurosystem has launched Pontes to settle wholesale tokenised asset transactions in central bank money: European tokenised markets now have the settlement anchor they lacked. |
