Event Summary: AI Toolkit Roadshow 2024 in Zürich

The Zürich edition of the AI Toolkit Roadshow 2024 served as a forum to share knowledge and insights on the topic of AI in wealth management, with views on the topic shared by technology vendors, wealth managers and consultants.

In Zürich last week, The Wealth Mosaic hosted the latest in an ongoing series of roadshow events: the AI Toolkit Roadshow. Held at AWS, the event assembled a cross-section of wealth management professionals, technology vendors, and industry consultants to explore the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in reshaping the wealth management landscape.

Driving innovation through collaboration

The event kicked off with a warm welcome from Stephen Wall , Founder of The Wealth Mosaic , who set the stage for a deeper dive into the evolving themes around AI in wealth management. He introduced our forthcoming AI Toolkit 2024 report, highlighted our AI WealthTech Market Map and its growth, all-in-all emphasising the urgency for wealth managers to understand AI's potential impact on the industry, and its integration into daily business operations.

Vincenzo Chiochia, PhD from Deloitte delivered a compelling keynote on the current state of AI adoption in the wealth management sector based on Deloitte’s research and market engagements. His insights into the challenges and opportunities faced by firms were particularly resonant, highlighting the complexities of navigating this technological evolution within the Swiss market.

Engaging technology demonstrations

The heart of the event lay in the technology demonstrations, where four vendors showcased innovative AI solutions designed specifically for wealth management. From AWS' advanced Customer 360 insights to InvestCloud's AI-driven client engagement tools, attendees witnessed first-hand the potential of AI to enhance operational efficiency, client experience and other requirements. Each demonstration provided clarity as to how firms can leverage AI-based technologies to remain competitive in a fast-evolving industry:

Moderated by Stephen Wall, the panel explored present and future applications of AI in wealth management, outlining its transformative possibilities, the challenges and roadblocks in its adoption, and the multi-faceted nature of bringing AI into the sector. The dialogue was full of practical advice, equipping attendees with actionable insights to implement AI strategies.
