Recommended agent uses

3 workflows you could delegate to AI

1

Monitor markets and draft client alerts

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to monitor market moves, position changes, and the news drivers you follow, then draft a plain-language alert for your review. It can compare the move with client holdings and produce a short note you can send after you decide whether the change is worth flagging.

Where you stay involved

You decide whether the market move matters enough to share and how to describe it to the client or manager. You also decide if the note crosses into trade advice or a compliance-sensitive area that needs a licensed person’s approval.

Review level: Medium

2

Review transactions and check compliance

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to review trade tickets, confirmations, and account records side by side, then draft a clean list of mismatches or missing details. It can also prepare a transaction summary for your files so you have a clearer picture of what needs follow-up before records are closed out.

Where you stay involved

You check the flagged items, decide what is just a clerical fix, and send any real problem to the right person. You keep the final call on whether something is accurate, incomplete, or needs compliance review.

Review level: High

3

Gather client needs and draft proposals

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to turn a client interview checklist into a draft client profile and proposal outline using the notes, documents, and figures you collected. It can organize assets, liabilities, cash flow, insurance, tax status, and stated goals into a package that is ready for you to review before you present anything.

Where you stay involved

You decide what the client actually needs, whether the information is complete, and whether the proposal is suitable to show. You also handle any tax, legal, or suitability questions that need a licensed advisor’s judgment.

Review level: High
