How AI is affecting this role
- ›Using Claude 3 to ingest a 100-page annual report in 10 seconds and instantly extract 'Management's Discussion & Analysis' risks regarding supply chain exposure.
- ›Leveraging GitHub Copilot to write a Python script that scrapes the Ministry of Commerce website for daily steel prices, updating the internal commodity dashboard automatically.
- ›Using n8n to connect Gmail to a Notion database, automatically tagging and filing investor update emails based on sender and sentiment score.
Ways to survive
- ›Stop spending time on data entry; treat data as a pipeline problem, not a spreadsheet problem.
- ›Learn to validate AI outputs, as hallucinations in financial contexts can lead to massive losses.
- ›Focus on 'proprietary access'—getting on calls with management that AI cannot access.
Ways to get ahead with AI
- ›Build custom AI agents that monitor specific regulatory changes in India/US and alert the team instantly.
- ›Learn to vectorize your firm's historical research documents to build a private 'Corporate Knowledge Base' for instant retrieval.
- ›Master SQL to directly query proprietary databases instead of waiting for IT to extract CSVs.
