AI is here to stay, but don’t cheap out

As an Australian global equities fund, Minotaur Capital understands the transformative power of artificial intelligence in investment management. Recent insights from Ifa highlight the critical importance of making strategic investments in AI technology rather than relying on free alternatives.

The financial services sector is experiencing unprecedented AI adoption, with global tech giants committing over $300 billion in AI capital investment for 2025 alone. This massive investment underscores AI's potential to revolutionise investment strategies. Research indicates that 37% of financial advisers are already utilising AI tools, though only 5% use them extensively, revealing significant growth opportunities.

Our co-founder and portfolio manager, Armina Rosenberg, emphasised the importance of investing in quality AI tools during the discussion:

"Make sure you pay for whatever tools you're using. If they are free, it's potentially public or trainable... ChatGPT is $20 a month. You're not going to break the bank on that one. So, pay for it," she said.

The article notes that Minotaur Capital uses AI "for absolutely everything," demonstrating our commitment to leveraging technology effectively. However, data security and regulatory compliance remain paramount concerns for investment managers. While 64% of advisers seek education on AI implementation, many remain cautious about accuracy and fiduciary obligations.

The rapid adoption curve of AI technology presents exciting opportunities for fund managers to enhance their investment processes while maintaining the highest standards of client data protection and regulatory compliance.
