In this episode of AI in Finance, Matt Reiner breaks from the usual three-headline format to focus entirely on the year ahead. What will actually matter in wealth management as AI moves from novelty to infrastructure?

2026 marks a turning point—where the conversation shifts from “what can AI do?” to “what will we command it to do?”

Matt shares six predictions that outline the real forces shaping how wealth managers will work, compete, and deliver value in the next era of AI.

🔍 What You'll Learn:

Why 95% of AI pilots fail—and how to build ones that survive the ROI reckoning

What it means to go from AI user to agent manager in a digital workforce

Why Shadow AI (unauthorized tool use) is now a bigger threat than external hacks

The difference between generic and vertical AI—and why specialization wins in finance

How Edge AI and local processing could unlock a new level of privacy

Why “System 2 reasoning” (slow, thoughtful AI) is becoming essential for real analysis

💡 Key Takeaways:

AI success in 2026 won’t be measured by how many tools you try—but by how deeply you rethink workflows

Agentic AI will transform advisors from doers to orchestrators—your skill will be in designing smart systems

Compliance and security must evolve with AI—firms that provide safe, enterprise-grade tools will outperform those that restrict usage

Specialized, finance-native AI models will outperform generic chatbots in compliance, suitability, and auditability

Edge AI will let firms process sensitive client data locally—boosting both privacy and speed

Accuracy and audit trails matter more than flash—expect AI performance to be judged like a junior analyst, not a novelty
