Intelligence at Scale: The Next Great Shift in Organizational Processes
Reimagining Everyday Processes with Intelligence We’re at a tipping point where intelligence is no longer the exclusive domain of humans. Large Language Models (LLMs) have exploded in size—from a few million parameters in 2012 to many billions today—and they’re being embedded across everyday business processes. The question: do we still need the same rigid protocols and escalation paths when machines can interpret context and respond dynamically? This shift is massive. Tradit

The complexity trap and how volatility is saving banks in capital markets
Why a record quarter (Q126) does not settle the structural question, and what the decline of Rome can tell us about the trajectory of capital markets Executive Summary The first quarter of 2026 was, by any reasonable measure, an excellent quarter for the Wall Street franchises.

Perplexity Could Own the Future of AI
Perplexity AI has emerged as a dark horse in the chatbot race- excelling not by pushing raw benchmark scores, but by optimizing for trust and reliability. A recent study by Legal Guardian Digital found Perplexity had the lowest hallucination rate (13%) of any major AI assistant and maintained 100% uptime during testing. By contrast, household names like ChatGPT had much higher error rates (~30%) and lower reliability. To put it simply, when it came to “getting everyday wor

FRTB compliance: Options for banks with small trading books in the United Arab Emirates
The Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) is a flagship market risk regulation that is a game changer for financial institutions. For FRTB compliance, banks in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have a choice between the Internal Model Approach (IMA) and the Standardised Approach (SA). Within the SA, banks can use the advanced approach based on risk sensitivities or a simplified standardised approach (SSA). The decision for FRTB compliance should be thought through care

The "Hidden Barrier" to AI in Financial Services - Data
It seems like every bank and financial institution (FI) is racing to implement AI. From enhancing fraud detection to personalizing customer experiences, the promised benefits are huge. But as someone who is involved in helping banks and FIs make the best use of technology, I'm seeing a disturbing trend: firms are jumping into the deep end without knowing how to swim. A recent MIT report, "The GenAI Divide: State of AI in Business 2025," is an eye-opener. It found that a stagg
