Anthropic has unveiled a dedicated solution for the financial services sector that integrates its Claude models with real-time data and enterprise tooling to accelerate market research, financial modelling, and compliance workflows. 

Catering to enterprises, this could be a move to rival the financial offerings from Perplexity, whose CEO Aravind Srinivas has frequently described it as a “commoditised version of Bloomberg Terminal.” Now, Anthropic’s Claude is also entering the same field as the Bloomberg Terminal.

The “Financial Analysis Solution” bundles Claude’s capabilities with pre-built connectors to platforms such as Snowflake, FactSet, Morningstar, and Databricks, enabling analysts to access verified market data and internal systems through a single interface. 

The offering also includes Claude Code for quantitative tasks such as Monte Carlo simulations, and expanded usage limits for Claude for Enterprise users.

In benchmark tests by Vals AI, the company claims that Claude Opus 4 outperformed peers in finance-specific reasoning. It also passed 5 of 7 levels in the Financial Modeling World Cup when deployed by FundamentalLabs.

“We’ve been developing capabilities powered by Claude since 2023,” said Aaron Linsky, CTO of AIA Labs at Bridgewater, which is a premier asset management firm. 

Nicolai Tangen, CEO of Norges Bank Investment Management, said, “Claude has fundamentally transformed the way we work at NBIM. With Claude, we estimate that we have achieved ~20% productivity gains – equivalent to 213,000 hours.”

Anthropic’s partners include consultancies such as Deloitte, PwC, and KPMG, which are helping financial firms deploy Claude across regulatory analysis, deal diligence, and trading system upgrades. The company claims that the cases span from auto-generating investment memos to modernising legacy underwriting systems.

With a strict no-training-on-user-data policy and availability via AWS Marketplace, Anthropic is positioning Claude as a secure and scalable AI layer for financial institutions.

Claude’s Financial Analysis Solution is available starting today. It will soon be available on Google Cloud Marketplace as well.
