Wellington Management uses internal AI tools that allow portfolio managers and analysts to query the firm's entire research archive, earnings call transcripts, and public commentary, returning detailed answers to specific investment questions in hours rather than days.
Details
In a November 2025 publication, Wellington Global Industry Analyst Brian Barbetta described internal AI tools that can search across all of the firm's research, earnings call transcripts, and public commentary and return detailed answers to specific queries. He gave the example of asking the system what every company in health care is saying about AI — a task that previously required reading extensive research, talking to analysts, and attending company meetings. The firm has confirmed it favors using third-party AI models rather than building its own, and takes a staged implementation approach.
