The SEC’s investigation aims to understand the full spectrum of AI’s application in investment advisory, from algorithmic decision-making to client interaction and risk assessment.

According to research by the professional association Million Dollar Roundtable, over 72% of advisors leverage AI for various professional purposes. This statistic demonstrates the significant penetration of AI in the industry, necessitating a closer look by regulatory bodies like the SEC.
