Each row quotes one record from bank profiles; the “On this site” link opens the bank's own page or sub-page with every source. Banks absent from the table have nothing matching on the record this site holds.
How is this ranked?
Data: the 141 bank profiles on this site (lib/banks), every entry dated and sourced: the "Where AI runs" use cases, each with a status (in production, rolling out, pilot, announced).
Rule: Use cases tagged trading-markets. Score = matching use cases. Order: matching use cases, then those in production, then the strongest stage, then the newest source.
Counts: 32 of 141 profiled banks qualify; 50 distinct sources cited in the table. Data checked 2026-10-28; ranking template updated 2026-10-30.
What are the caveats?
Banks absent from the table have nothing matching on the record this site holds, which is not evidence that they do nothing. Each row links the bank's own page, where every entry carries its sources.
Which bank ranks first?
Société Générale leads with 3 use cases: Trading Assistant for derivatives requests for quotation: A market-specific NLP and machine-learning chatbot, designed in 2017 for equity requests for quotation, later extended…. Citi is second with 3.
How many large banks describe AI use cases for trading and markets?
32 of the 141 profiled banks (120 US, 21 non-US groups). Among those listed, 21 are US banks and 11 non-US groups.
What counts, and what does not?
Use cases tagged trading-markets. Score = matching use cases. Order: matching use cases, then those in production, then the strongest stage, then the newest source. Source: the 141 bank profiles on this site (lib/banks), every entry dated and sourced: the "Where AI runs" use cases, each with a status (in production, rolling out, pilot, announced).
Is this a measure of capability?
No. Every row is a sourced fact on the public record: what the bank, a regulator, a filing or an independent outlet has put on the record. The page does not rate how well anything works.
When was this checked, and how often does it update?
The data behind the table was last checked on 2026-10-28 (bank profiles). The page recomputes whenever that dataset changes and is republished with the site; it is never edited by hand.
