Artificial intelligence darling Anthropic unveiled a set of new AI agents, and they are aimed directly at Wall Street. Designed to handle a broader mix of financial services tasks, Anthropic says they can draft pitch decks for client meetings, review financial statements and escalate cases for compliance review. The new tools—10 in total—are directed squarely at professionals across banking, insurance, asset management and financial technology.
In February, an automation tool from Anthropic sparked a $285 billion rout in stocks across the software, financial services and asset management sectors as investors raced to dump shares with even the slightest exposure. Tuesday’s reaction wasn’t quite so dramatic, though certainly unpleasant for some.
FactSet Research Systems shares fell as much 8.1% after the announcement while Morningstar erased earlier gains to fall more than 3%. Shares of S&P Global and Moody’s both saw sharp selling pressure as well. Thomson Reuters shares fell as much as 5.1%.
As part of the new offerings, Anthropic said it is enabling its Claude AI model to work better across third-party software like Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook, and integrate data from partners in the financial services industry, such as Dun & Bradstreet and Moody’s.
Also of potential interest to financial industry workers, Anthropic is deepening its ties to Wall Street through a new joint venture with Blackstone, Hellman & Friedman and Goldman Sachs. The venture will work to deploy its software to more businesses. OpenAI has finalized plans for a similar endeavor. —Jordan Parker Erb
