Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the field of investing, offering transparent and flexible solutions for new-age investors. It has surpassed traditional models and human managers in various areas, providing better results in alpha generation, risk management, extracting alternative information, and improving operational efficiency. AI-driven advisors are solving critical problems faced by investors, from asset allocation to reducing trading costs. Globally, asset managers, brokerages, hedge funds, and robo-advisors are increasingly adopting AI, and the research in this field is expanding rapidly. In India, AI is blooming in investment management, empowering data-driven investors and asset managers for more efficient and rewarding investing experiences.

“Artificial Intelligence can create a competitive edge to extract actionable insights in the complex framework of the financial markets with their ever-changing dynamic nature, hundreds of noisy factors affecting performance, and non-linear interactions.”
