Key Takeaways
  • A practical, end-to-end look at AI in wealth management. Through insights from Fidelity’s Judy Lee and Andrew Brzezinski, this webinar blends market context, adoption data, and real-world use cases—giving viewers a clear picture of where AI stands today and where it’s heading next.
  • AI adoption is widespread but real impact is still developing. Roughly 70% of firms are using or piloting AI, yet most results remain incremental1. This suggests that many firms are still in the early stages of translating experimentation into measurable business value.
  • Immediate gains come from everyday workflow efficiency. The most proven use cases
    today—writing, meeting prep, note-taking, and summarization—are delivering consistent productivity boosts without requiring large-scale transformation.
  • Long-term advantage will come from data and strategy, not tools alone. As AI capabilities become commoditized, firms that win will be those with strong data strategies, thoughtful integration into workflows, and a clear understanding of their differentiated client value.
