Wells’ AI initiatives
Wells plans to invest $900 million in technology to reduce risk and enhance customer service, the bank said in its Jan. 15 earnings call.
The bank in March 2024 also established a generative AI council to study development and use cases for gen AI for automating internal tasks.
Additionally, Wells is collaborating with tech firms to expand its services. The bank and AI-driven cloud platform Derivative Path teamed up last month to provide community banks with foreign exchange payment APIs to deliver real-time FX rates.
