Arta Finance launches globally via Singapore, unveils Arta AI Copilot, and announces Wealth-as-a-Service for banks
Arta also launched the first-of-its-kind AI Copilot, purpose-built for wealth management and finance. This patent-pending technology, rolling out progressively to members will empower them to make smarter investment decisions - ideate, analyse, and monitor their portfolios with the tools and insights that usually require large teams of relationship managers, private bankers, and investment analysts.
Unlike commonly available AI chatbots or apps, Arta's AI systems are purpose-built for applications in wealth and finance and exploit the reasoning capabilities of the latest large language models. Arta's AI stack employs several models that work in conjunction with each other - including commercially available closed source models, fine-tuned open source LLMs and several custom built AI/ML models created by Arta's researchers. These models have access to high-quality public and proprietary data including large financial and risk data sets for training and inference. This enables Arta to combine the fluency of LLMs with the time sensitivity, hard mathematical rigour and explainability necessary for investment and financial applications. Its AI stack, like the rest of Arta's infrastructure, is highly privacy-preserving and uses encryption at rest and in transit for all user data.
Singapore Minister of State for Trade and Industry and MAS board member, Alvin Tan was on hand to help launch Arta in the City State, alongside investors, fund managers, partners, and clients. The company has established key functions in Singapore including engineering, marketing, product, design and operations and a number of its global leads including its CEO are based in Singapore .
Commenting on the launch, Arta CEO Caesar Sengupta said:
Arta today also took a major step on its B2B journey with the announcement that Abu Dhabi's Wio Invest would be the first of many financial institutions to integrate the Arta wealth-as-a-service platform into Wio's industry leading digital investment platform, to create a new wealth management offering for its clients in the Middle East , pending regulatory approval.
The 'wealth-as-a-service' platform for banks is a new B2B offering by Arta. It was done with support from the venture building team of the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), which worked closely with Arta to incubate this offering during the early stages of the concept. This cloud-based platform empowers partner banks to serve their clients better and meet evolving demands with faster time-to-market for innovative wealth management products, services, and technology. Banks can choose from integrating Arta AI Copilot capabilities, to embedding Arta's investment solutions into their platforms, to fully white-labelling the Arta platform — enhancing their digital capabilities and unlocking growth in new wealth segments.
To help integrate a cloud and AI native wealth platform into legacy systems at partner banks, Arta is also announcing partnerships with Google Cloud and global management and technology consultancy Capco to provide solutions for banks looking to adopt Arta's technology.
Amanda Ong, Singapore Country Director and Head of International Expansion commented:
