About this episode
The episode discusses how Vanguard is preparing for an AI-powered future with insights from its leaders on the transformative potential of AI.
Artificial intelligence may be the most transformative technology in decades, but only if it moves beyond automation. Recorded live at Vanguard’s unlimITed Technology Conference , Peter High sits down with three Vanguard leaders: Joe Davis, Global Chief Economist; Nitin Tandon, Global Chief Information Officer; and Joanna Rotenberg, Managing Director of Personal Wealth. Together, they explore how AI is reshaping economic growth, financial services, workforce development, and technology strategy. The discussion examines why Vanguard believes AI’s greatest potential lies in augmentation and entirely new products and services, not simply cost reduction. The leaders also share how years of cloud modernization, data transformation, product operating models, and enterprise-wide AI enablement have positioned Vanguard to accelerate innovation while maintaining trust. Key topics include AI productivity, economic resilience, digital advice, modernization, and responsible AI adoption. This episode is presented by Celonis — Give AI the context it needs.
