The London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) and Microsoft have unveiled the next phase of their multi-year partnership, which will leverage Microsoft’s AI technology to enhance the exchange group’s financial data capabilities.
Specifically, the collaboration will implement agentic AI developed in Microsoft Copilot Studio and integrated into Microsoft 365 Copilot, utilizing LSEG data. According to both organizations, this partnership aims to “enhance decision-making and productivity, while lowering barriers to innovation.”
David Schwimmer, group chief executive at LSEG, stated, “LSEG’s partnership with Microsoft is transforming access to data for financial professionals with cutting-edge, AI-driven innovation at scale. LSEG customers can build, deploy, and scale agentic AI directly into their workflows with secure, seamless connectivity through MCP.”
Microsoft acquired a stake in LSEG in 2022, and just a year later, in August 2023, they announced plans to jointly develop generative AI models applied to financial data.
