How Financial Institutions Can Grow Their Workforce, without impacting their Payroll?
AI adoption in finance has reached a tipping point: as of 2025, 75% of firms are already using AI, with another 10% planning to follow in the next three years (Bank of England & FCA, Nov 2024). Yet, most institutions are still scratching the surface-62% of AI use cases are rated “low impact", while only 16% are considered highly material. In addition, nearly half of firms admit they only partially understand the technology they’ve deployed.
The stakes are high. In 2025, 42% of companies abandoned most of their AI initiatives (S&P Global), often due to unclear goals, skills gaps, or regulatory hurdles. But the companies who get it right are seeing dramatic results: AI agents are freeing staff from repetitive tasks, accelerating compliance, and enabling teams to focus on high-value client relationships and innovation.
This conference goes beyond the hype. We’ll showcase real-world examples of financial institutions that have turned AI agents into engines of workforce growth-upskilling employees, boosting productivity, and driving measurable business outcomes. You’ll hear how to avoid common pitfalls, implement AI securely and compliantly, and build a culture where humans and AI agents thrive together.
