The agent wave sweeps through the securities industry, with brokerages.

2026 is regarded by the industry as the "first year of financial intelligent agents." Multiple securities firms have proactively integrated into the intelligent agent ecosystems of major internet platforms, and the AI transformation of securities firms is moving from "in-house development for internal use" to "ecosystem openness." In just a few months, platforms such as Kimi, Tencent WorkBuddy, Alibaba Qwen, and Volcano Engine have successively laid out their presence in the financial sector, with securities firms becoming active adopters. At the same time, several listed securities firms disclosed the latest progress of their AI strategies in their 2026 semi-annual reports. From wealth management to investment research, investment banking, and compliance and risk control, AI is deeply embedded in the core business processes of securities firms, and an industry race centered on intelligent agents has already begun.
