Morgan Stanley bets on scale as AI commoditizes financial advice

Morgan Stanley is increasing its focus on scale as a competitive advantage in the financial advisory sector.

This strategy emphasizes the enduring value of large-scale operations in an increasingly AI-driven financial landscape. AI

IMPACT Suggests that scale, rather than AI capabilities alone, will be a key differentiator for large financial institutions.
