Goldman Sachs Collaborates with Anthropic to Develop Claude AI Co-Pilots for Accounting and AML Automation

Goldman Sachs (GS:US) is collaborating with AI startup Anthropic to develop Claude-based AI co-pilots that automate accounting, compliance, and due diligence workflows. Marco Argenti, Goldman Sachs’ head of information, confirmed Anthropic engineers have been on-site for six months building autonomous agents to handle back-office tasks such as trade accounting, client onboarding, and AML screenings. The initiative is in its early stages, with a planned rollout of these agents expected soon, though no specific timeline was provided. Anthropic’s Claude Cowork platform, designed to assist白领 workers with computer-related tasks, is being leveraged for this effort. Goldman Sachs aims to boost operational efficiency and reduce reliance on expanding headcount, with high-level executives noting surprise at AI’s success in structured, non-programming domains like accounting and compliance.
