Moody’s has partnered with Microsoft on collaboration and analytics to offer financial services and global knowledge workers with a new and enhanced offering.
The “global integrated risk assessment firm”, Moody’s, will provide data, analytics, and research capabilities, while Microsoft will bring its Azure OpenAI Service.
The strategic partnership promises to deliver next-generation data, analytics, research, collaboration, and risk solutions.
Rob Fauber, President and Chief Executive Officer of Moody’s Corporation, said: “Generative AI represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to enhance how companies navigate the ever-evolving world of exponential risk.
“By combining Microsoft’s cutting-edge AI capabilities with our proprietary data, research, and analytics, Moody’s is positioned to lead the next generation of risk analysis, helping our customers make better decisions by unlocking deeper, more integrated, and unmatched perspectives on risk.
Fauber continued: “We have activated our 14,000 global employees to drive unprecedented experimentation and ignite new innovations across our suite of products and solutions.
“We are excited to partner with Microsoft to set the standard for how generative AI will pioneer new advancements across our industry.”
Collaboration and Productivity Enhancements
Through its partnership with Microsoft, Moody’s can utilise Microsoft Teams to launch a new collaboration, productivity, and communication platform for knowledge workers and customers.
By implementing Moody’s copilot tools, Teams can automate manual workflows, make data and content more accessible, and bring together and summarise information from multiple data sets.
The result of this will mean improved insights, greater productivity and compliance, and better customer and employee experiences.
The pair will also collaborate on data delivery to shared customers via Microsoft Fabric, an end-to-end data analytics platform.
Fabric synthesises technologies, such as Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure Data Factory, and Power BI, making it easier for engineers to connect and organise data from multiple sources.
New & Improved Risk Analytics
Moody’s is releasing a new copilot tool for customers called “Moody’s Research Assistant”, which will offer a comprehensive risk analysis.
The solution is built on Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service and can be accessed through multiple channels, including Microsoft Teams.
Moody’s Research Assistant quickly collects and summarises complex information from multiple data sources, while keeping it in a secure environment that safeguards private information.
It will offer numerous capabilities, including the ability to generate detailed analyses of a company or sector by gathering data using large language models (LLMs) from various sources, such as economic forecasts, credit indicators, firmographic data, and reputational profiles.
Bill Borden, Corporate Vice President of Worldwide Financial Services at Microsoft, commented:
“Our partnership will bring together world-class insights from Moody’s with the capabilities, trust and breadth of Microsoft Cloud — including Azure OpenAI Service, Fabric and Teams — to enable next-gen solutions that will unlock powerful business intelligence and transform productivity and collaboration.
“We look forward to the new opportunities and value this will bring to employees and firms across banking, capital markets, and insurance as well as those in other industries such as manufacturing, telecommunications, transportation, and utilities.”
Teleperformance is also gaining access to Microsoft technologies through a multi-year, $185 million Azure Cloud Commitment.
