On-premise deployment brings firm-specific AI into critical banking workflows while keeping data, institutional knowledge and activity within Deutsche Bank’s technology environment

Farsight, the platform helping global financial services firms become AI-native, announced its partnership with Deutsche Bank. Deutsche Bank has deployed Farsight at present across Investment Banking & Capital Markets teams in Europe and North America, bringing specialized AI directly into critical banking workflows while keeping sensitive data, proprietary knowledge and workflow activity within the bank’s own technology environment.

The on-premise deployment enables Deutsche Bank teams to apply AI to internal data and workflows while maintaining greater control over how that information is accessed and used. Farsight can incorporate the bank’s prior work, internal standards and proprietary data into workflows tailored to how individual teams operate, including their preferred formats, processes and standards. Bankers can then generate and refine materials through an automated chat experience that incorporates context and feedback over time.

“Our teams have very specific standards for what goes in front of a client, and those standards vary from group to group,” said George Tierney, Managing Director, Global Chief Operating Officer for M&A at Deutsche Bank. “Farsight gives our teams a way to apply AI to their own workflows and materials while operating within Deutsche Bank’s technology environment. That combination of control and customization is critical to making AI work in a global, regulated enterprise like Deutsche Bank.”

Financial institutions are increasingly moving AI beyond standalone experimentation and general-purpose assistants to specialized workflows. For regulated firms, this shift depends on access to data, much of which is sensitive. Running Farsight within the bank’s infrastructure allows the platform to put that data to work where it can have the greatest impact, while financial institutions maintain control over the data.

“Banks have spent decades building proprietary data, workflows and judgment that shape how their teams work,” said Samir Dutta, Co-Founder and CEO of Farsight. “Running Farsight within a bank’s own infrastructure allows that knowledge to remain inside the institution while becoming part of how teams use AI. By incorporating banker feedback, Farsight can help AI reflect how a bank approaches client work rather than relying solely on general-purpose outputs.”

The Deutsche Bank deployment builds on Farsight’s growing presence across financial services, with the platform supporting teams at some of the world’s largest financial institutions.
