Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

The firm deployed an internal Generative AI assistant to help financial advisors query thousands of proprietary research reports. A strict governance layer sits between the user and the LLM, stripping out any client names or account numbers from the query before it reaches the model, ensuring no client data leaks into the model training set.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"The blueprint for Enterprise GenAI. While the hype is about the model, the value is in the governance wrapper. By sanitizing inputs and verifying outputs (grounding), the firm unlocked the productivity of LLMs without violating the 'don't feed the model' rule of financial privacy."

warning The Challenge

Advisors drowned in research PDFs. Finding the specific 'view on Asian Tech' took too long. Public LLMs (ChatGPT) were banned due to the risk of leaking client data or IP into the public training corpus.

psychology The Solution

Built 'Morgan Stanley Assistant' on Azure OpenAI Service (private instance). Implemented a content filtering middleware. If an advisor types 'Write a note to Mr. Smith (Acct 123) about Apple', the middleware blocks the PII or redacts it before processing. The model only has access to the curated knowledge base.
