Symphony Launches the First Agentic AI Layer for Global Finance
Symphony today unveiled the first “agentic AI layer” for the global financial markets, opening the door for AI agents to securely and autonomously execute financial transactions at scale. This innovation marks a turning point, enabling agents not just to analyze but to act within financial systems.
After years of development, Symphony says it now powers over 300 AI agents across institutions, supporting autonomous trading, yield strategies, and market operations.
What Makes This Agentic AI Layer Unique
From Insight to Execution
Until now, AI systems in finance largely delivered insights, recommendations, forecasts, signals. The Symphony's layer moves beyond that. It provides infrastructure for non-custodial execution, meaning agents can place trades or move capital without intermediaries. It also includes safeguards to avoid “execution hallucination” i.e., agents taking wrong or unsafe actions.
Seamless Integration & Composability
Symphony’s architecture is modular, allowing agents to combine capabilities across systems liquidity access, strategy modules, portfolio management while maintaining secure interactions and interoperability. This makes it easier to build complex agent workflows that operate across markets and protocols.
Rapid Validation & Adoption
-
Within months of launching its consumer agent app, Symphony processed over $140 million in transactions, becoming one of the fastest growing “agent terminals” by volume.
-
It already collaborates with more than 15 leading financial institutions, forming one of the largest agentic finance ecosystems.
-
With over 300 agents in operation, it’s positioning itself as a foundational infrastructure layer for agentic finance.
Vik Chawla, Symphony CEO, described the trends driving the launch:
“Large language models have commoditized financial insight. Now, there’s a cultural shift toward letting AI steer real parts of life. Symphony is the infrastructure layer where the next generation of financial markets will be built.”
Why This Matters for Finance & AI
-
Democratizing Agentic Finance
With proper execution infrastructure, agents are no longer tools for quant shops they become accessible to broader firms and even individuals. -
Bridging AI & Liquidity
Insight without execution is limited. By connecting agents to real financial rails and liquidity, Symphony turns models into actionable agents. -
Reducing Risk
Through built-in guardrails, monitoring, and modular architecture, Symphony aims to limit risk from rogue actions or model drift. Execution hallucination safeguards and auditability are central. -
Infrastructure for the Next Era
This isn’t a gimmick, it's a building block. As agentic systems grow, the need for secure, performant execution layers will be essential. Symphony is staking a claim in that foundational layer.
