Integrating Gen AI into asset management, investment and trading processes presents a mix of transformative potential and critical challenges. We’ve heard the case and promise this technology can offer, but we now must consider the practical challenges of adoption and how to deploy in a safe and compliant way. Jamie and Rebecca will delve into the regulatory and governance hurdles, how to roll the technology out, as well frameworks for measuring the value of Gen AI: 

• What are the most effective strategies and training programs for fostering gen AI literacy and enthusiasm among traders, analysts and portfolio managers? 
• How to establish ROI benchmarks and frameworks to measure AI's impact on the business? 
• What are the emerging regulatory and ethical hurdles, including data privacy, transparency and explainability? 
• How to establish a governance structure that will oversee AI deployment and comply with industry standards? 

• Outlining the latest regulatory developments and milestones, including cross-border coordination between EU and UK authorities
• What are the expected timelines and key deliverables?
• What will the tape look like and how will cost allocation work?
• Will the tape require rules around reporting hidden liquidity, and could this help provide a consolidated view of liquidity in Europe?
• How will the tape enhance transparency and improve price discovery to benefit market participants? 
• What are the key challenges in implementing the tape, such as data standardization, costs and governance?

The trading industry is often associated with high stakes, rapid decision-making, and intense pressure. However, the impact these challenges have on mental health is rarely addressed. 

In partnership with Sustainable Trading, we will host a closed-door session featuring a panel of market experts who will share their personal insights into mental health within the trading industry. The discussion will explore the critical role that managers and colleagues play in fostering a mentally healthy workplace, as well as highlight various industry initiatives designed to better support employees.
