LSEG — a major financial markets infrastructure and data provider — is scaling AI adoption internally and externally through a close partnership with OpenAI. According to Emily Prince, Group Head of Enterprise AI, and Max Grigoryev, Group Director AI Products, the company is using ChatGPT Enterprise and OpenAI APIs to help its 27,000 employees access and act on large volumes of financial data more precisely than before. A central theme is that trust in AI begins with trust in data: every AI product LSEG builds is evaluated not only for data accuracy but also for response groundedness, model reasoning quality, data surplus, and data fidelity.
Prince describes the broader opportunity as allowing analysts to move beyond routine tasks into deeper research and more orthogonal insights — work they previously lacked the time to pursue.
