HSBC Global Private Banking has introduced ‘Wealth Intelligence,’ an innovative generative AI-powered ecosystem aimed at revolutionizing its private banking advisory services. This in-house developed platform, leveraging OpenAI’s advanced large language model, is designed to equip HSBC’s private banking teams with the tools to deliver investment advice that is both quicker and more precisely tailored to individual client needs.
The core functionality of Wealth Intelligence involves reviewing and summarizing HSBC’s proprietary research, alongside external news gathered from over 10,000 diverse data sources. This comprehensive data analysis provides investment counsellors and product specialists with expedited access to critical reports from the bank’s acclaimed Chief Investment Office.
