AI Agents in Finance: How Relative Value Analysis and Tearsheets Pave the Way for AI Copilots and Autonomous Intelligent Agents

Creating a Copilot or AI agent for financial markets is a complex and challenging endeavor. The two main variables in this context are the strategy and the inherently unpredictable nature of the market. A flawless strategy is essential because even a single mistake can result in significant financial losses. Due to the unpredictable nature of the markets, a robust strategy alone is insufficient. Stringent controls must be established to safeguard strategies against market volatility.

With advancements in generative AI for relative value analysis, combined with the implementation of precise guardrails and price boundaries, the dream of effective Copilots and AI agents in financial markets is becoming increasingly feasible. These technologies can provide the necessary oversight and dynamic adjustments to navigate the complexities of financial markets with greater confidence and accuracy.

Copilot: In its first phase, Copilot will revolutionize financial markets by harnessing the power of financial data. Fund managers and traders on Wall Street will be able to easily create trading strategies and analyze data through a series of conversations. By integrating Copilot into these apps, users will discover insights through natural language interactions rather than navigating complex interfaces. The Copilot will act as a pair trader, advisor, and fund manager, offering autocomplete-style suggestions for trading strategies.

Traders and fund managers will receive suggestions from Copilot while building a strategy or learning about a new asset class by simply writing a natural language comment describing their goals or intentions. Using Copilot's advanced contextual analysis of strategy data sheets, financial markets, and related files, it will offer suggestions directly on their screen, allowing them to make informed decisions quickly.

OpenEXA's Copilot is powered by the OpenEXA knowledge base, a new AI system created by fine-tuning LLM models on OpenEXA’s datasets. OpenEXA's Copilot will be continually trained on financial markets, crypto markets, and an extensive range of internal OpenEXA datasets, making it a highly sophisticated and effective tool for traders and fund managers, whether they are new to alternative asset trading or seasoned professionals. Traders can further fine-tune the model to fit their own strategy, risk tolerance, and style.

OpenEXA's Copilot will also facilitate learning new asset classes such as cryptocurrency. By writing natural language comments describing what they want to achieve or learn, AI Copilot will provide relevant suggestions, enabling users to develop a deeper understanding of the asset class. With the power of Copilot, learning a new asset class has never been easier. It will provide valuable insights and suggestions to help optimize trading strategies and improve performance.

With Copilot, traders and fund managers can focus on making the right decisions instead of spending valuable time analyzing data. OpenEXA plans to revolutionize the trading industry by simplifying the initial steps of strategy formulation and putting traders and fund managers in the driver's seat for the final strategy. This intermediate approach will familiarize traders and fund managers with the technology, which is critical to the eventual release of an intelligent agent that will take these capabilities to the next level.

Based on the holdings, Almost You then decides whether to borrow the asset to short, optimizing the strategy for maximum potential returns.
  ‍
• ‍Calling Broker Dealer API: Almost You engages a broker-dealer API, such as Interactive Brokers, to execute buying, selling, or shorting of securities on its behalf. These broker-dealers handle all trades for Almost You, interfacing seamlessly with other key entities including prime brokers, transfer agents, custodians, authorized participants, and issuers. This integrated approach ensures efficient, compliant, and streamlined transactions across the financial ecosystem.

• Calling Prime Broke API: After assessing the holdings and borrowing the asset, Almost You engages a prime broker such as Bank of America or Coinbase to communicate with the ETF issuer through an authorized participant (AP). This process locks in the price for creation or redemption at a specified rate. Approval is obtained prior to shorting the asset, ensuring all steps are coordinated and compliant with regulatory standards.
  ‍
• Calling Transfer Agent API: After receiving approval from the ETF issuer and the authorized participant via the prime broker API, Almost You instructs the transfer agent, such as BNY Mellon, to coordinate the transfer of assets from your SMA custodian to the issuer's custodian. This seamless process ensures efficient and secure handling of assets, maintaining compliance and optimizing operational efficiency.‍
