Build, Buy, and Partner: How Enterprises Are Deploying AI

Many financial services firms are now weighing whether to build a custom AI solution in-house, buy an existing platform, or create a hybrid. The paths have real tradeoffs: control and customization on one side, speed and proven scale on the other. In this webinar, we'll explore how firms are approaching that decision and what's driving them toward one path or the other. To help explore the options, Jump's VP of Strategy and Head of Insights Liam Hanlon is joined by Anthony Montufar, Head of Digital and Client Experience at Equitable Advisors, to discuss how they think about build vs. buy decisions and show the tools Equitable Advisors has deployed. In this webinar, you’ll learn: The questions to ask before deciding: How to evaluate any AI capability, what separates a sound build decision from a flawed one, and the questions most teams overlook. The costs no one forecasts: The hidden burden of building and the real risks of buying, weighed honestly. Why you don’t have to choose one or the other: Why leading organizations rarely go all-build or all-buy, and how they decide which elements can be addressed with hybrid approaches.
