Morgan Stanley’s CEO Ted Pick announced that artificial intelligence (AI) could save the bank’s financial advisers 10-15 hours a week. Speaking at a recent conference, Pick highlighted the game-changing potential of the AI tool, which transcribes and enters notes from client meetings into a database, significantly enhancing advisers’ productivity.

The bank also plans to increase lending to high net worth clients through structured lending products, leveraging growing deposits to expand loans and tailored lending solutions.
Commitment to Dividends and Stock Performance
In addition to discussing AI and market conditions, Pick reaffirmed Morgan Stanley’s commitment to maintaining its “sacrosanct” dividend. While the bank’s approach to stock buybacks will depend on share prices, Pick emphasised his preference for dividends. Over the past year, Morgan Stanley’s stock has risen by more than 12%, reflecting positive market reception to its strategies and innovations.
