## Agent use cases

| Use case | Stage | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| **Agentic-AI risk factor and AI control framework** | In production | The 20-F says AI risk is incorporated into the control framework and flags hallucination, bias, explainability, data sovereignty and autonomous agents overriding safeguards. |
| **TPRM AI agents for vendor-risk evidence** | In production | Specialised agents retrieve control questions, draft answers from vendor evidence and propose an outcome with citations; up to five documents in under two minutes against about 30 minutes for one by hand, around 90% accuracy, human assessors decide. |
| **Voice surveillance and an LLM for trade anomalies** | In production | Google Speech-to-Text voice surveillance with more than 90% transcription accuracy, about 10x wider lexicon and 65% lower cost; with Google Cloud the bank is also building an agentic model to flag anomalies in orders, trades and market moves for a human compliance officer. |
| **Agentic resilience platform for regulatory tabletop exercises** | In production | Builds scenarios from architecture, logs and incident history using LangGraph for traceable, deterministic runs and Google's Agent Development Kit for adaptive investigation; produces evidence-ready records for DORA exercises. |
| **Agentic AI operating model and AI-assisted coding** | Rolling out | Front-to-back agentic streamlining; 10–20% developer productivity assumed. |
| **Agentic Source of Wealth checks in private-bank KYC** | Rolling out | Automates research, documentation and data preparation with human review; live in Singapore and Hong Kong and for Dubai advisers on Singapore-booked accounts, with a wider rollout planned. No US booking centre is named. |
