NatWest Trustee and Depositary Services is incorporating AI into its operations to improve its investor protections.
This comes amid data volume surges and increased compliance expectations, the bank says.
NatWest says that it has made substantial investments in its digital infrastructure, building a cloud-native platform that uses AI.
Mark Crathern, head of NatWest Trustee and Depositary Services, says: “AI is playing a vital role in our digital strategy as we enhance our value proposition to clients and ensure governance practices keep pace with industry developments.
“We are seeing that AI is more than just a productivity tool - it has the power to transform the asset and wealth management industry and indeed how we oversee it.”
