HSBC deepens AI push with Google Cloud partnership

HSBC (HSBA.L) has entered a multi-year partnership with Google Cloud (GOOGL) aimed at building out the bank’s artificial intelligence capabilities. The agreement is designed to accelerate how AI is deployed across the organisation, adding to existing use of cloud technologies within the bank.

The partnership is expected to enable automation of 200 additional tasks using AI over the next two years. This expansion is intended to build on HSBC’s current technology base and increase the range of processes and activities that AI can support.

Scope and scale of planned AI projects

Under the collaboration, Google Cloud and Google DeepMind engineering teams will work with HSBC to identify priority AI projects. Each priority initiative is expected to have the potential to deliver more than $100 million in revenue gains or efficiency improvements.

HSBC will gain access to Google’s Gemini model as part of the deal. The bank already operates 600 applications on Google Cloud, providing an existing platform for integrating new AI-driven tools and services.

Initial focus areas for AI deployment

The first phase of the partnership will concentrate on three main areas. One focus is personalised wealth management support, where AI will be used to tailor services and interactions to client needs.

Another key area is financial crime risk management, with AI being applied to help detect and manage potential risks more effectively. The partnership also targets AI-empowered decision making for frontline staff, with tools designed to reduce time spent on administration and meeting preparation.

Strategic aims and leadership perspective

HSBC’s leadership positions the agreement as a way to modernise the bank and support employees. Chief executive Elhedery said the partnership with Google Cloud helps give colleagues the tools they need to be future-ready.

Elhedery also stated that the collaboration supports efforts to build a simple, agile, faster, and more personal HSBC. The combination of Google’s AI technology and HSBC’s existing cloud infrastructure is expected to underpin this strategic direction over the coming years.

  • 02By working with Google Cloud and Google DeepMind, HSBC is focusing on high-impact projects with potential nine-figure benefits per initiative.
