Standard Chartered has announced the introduction of an AI-powered video column named the “Standard Chartered Wealth Management FX Intelligent Expert” aimed at providing real-time foreign exchange market insights to clients in its key markets. This feature, developed in collaboration with LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group), signifies a major advancement in delivering accessible and timely FX market information.

The initiative builds upon insights from Standard Chartered’s Daily Market Navigator, an authoritative publication by the bank’s Global Chief Investment Office. The new solution utilizes AI-driven summarization to convert complex market data into one-minute videos with voiceovers and visuals. After its initial launch for retail clients in Mainland China in December 2024, there are plans to expand the service to Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

Foreign exchange investments play a vital role in diversified asset allocation; however, many investors find it challenging to keep up with fast-paced market changes. The new tool aims to provide quicker access to market insights, enhancing client experiences through dynamic video updates that simplify understanding of market trends and trade opportunities.

Samir Subberwal from Standard Chartered expressed satisfaction over collaborating with LSEG: “We are delighted to collaborate with LSEG to bring this pioneering AI-powered FX video insight service to our clients in our key markets. By transforming our Global Chief Investment Office’s expert views into easily digestible, high-quality videos, we offer our clients access to timely market insights wherever they are, reinforcing our commitment to technological innovation and personalised wealth solutions that meet evolving needs.”

Sneha Manohar from LSEG added: “We are proud to work with Standard Chartered on this innovative use of artificial intelligence in the banking industry. Our technological solutions help refine complex FX market data into accessible video content, empowering investors to make well-informed decisions in an increasingly dynamic environment.”
