How do you deploy AI in one of the world's most regulated industries without sacrificing trust, governance or control? In this episode, Lawrence Baker speaks to Davide Martucci, CEO and Co-Founder of Next Gate Tech, about the realities of implementing AI in investment operations. They explore why clean data and deterministic workflows remain essential, where large language models genuinely add value, and why the future lies in combining agentic AI with robust governance frameworks. The conversation covers data management, workflow automation, regulatory accountability, and how investment firms can move beyond experimentation towards scalable, trusted AI adoption.

In this episode of IA Talks AI, Lawrence Baker speaks with Adam Granger, founder of Accomplish and Agentic Risks, about the rise of AI agents and what they mean for investment management. Together they explore how agentic AI differs from traditional software and generative AI, the opportunities it creates for research, operations and productivity, and the new governance challenges it introduces. From the “working dog” analogy for AI oversight to the emergence of the “human–agent organisation”, the conversation offers practical insights on managing agentic risk, maintaining accountability, and preparing organisations for a future where humans and AI agents increasingly work side by side.
