“if you look at things like client acquisition, meeting planning, meeting schedule, meeting preparation, goal-based advice, the products and solutions, meeting follow-up and summarization and business planning, those are the things that we've embedded in the tools. So our eMeeting, as an example, capability that's already integrated can pull all the data from adviser engagement with the client, the past cases that they're in, the opportunities that we get from adviser insight so that they can say, what's the next thing possibly the client may be interested based on where they are in their financial situation.”

“we see clear productivity where advisers have enabled it. We see, as an example, our meeting takes away hours of work within an adviser practice every week. Okay. We haven't extrapolated what advisers then do with that productivity. But those are things that we will try to figure out the metrics appropriate for them.”

“it's not a stand-alone initiative. What differentiates what we're trying to do is that these capabilities are embedded in an integrated platform built around how advisers work, supported by the data foundation, which is very critical in a highly regulated business and the governance for it. Now the integration allows us to deploy AI directly into everyday workflows, it's across advice, ops, service and rather than layering it as a tool in a fragmented system. The result is greater efficiency, better insights and more time that our advisers can really spend on the client relationships”

“I don't know why that people wouldn't look at the core margin and give it even more valuation than where people are making all of their earnings from cash. Now in our case, what we tried to do is then develop the bank in a way that we can add value added from both lending activities and savings programs that we'll be ramping up with even on checking and activities. But the amount of cash that will still be in transaction, whether AI assisted or not, is so low that money will be moving in and out to do that, just like a basic checking account to some extent.”

“we're applying advanced analytics and technology within asset management, including an investment research where these capabilities are contributing real value. At the same time, we're transforming how we leverage our global platform. We're driving greater efficiency across the front, middle and back office, while continuing to strengthen our data foundation.”

“we've designed our tech platform around how advisers work, not individual tools. It connects multiple capabilities like our CRM platform, eMeeting, advice insights and practice the workflows into an intelligent ecosystem, enhanced with embedded AI and automation.”

“Our focus is on using AI and intelligent automation capabilities at scale to help advisers deliver a consistent, high-quality client experience, while improving how they operate day to day.”

“Over time, we'll introduce more AI agents to do some of the actual adviser work, whether it's necessary or appropriate to ease and give them more productivity rather than adding more staff.”
