Google Cloud and Shinhan Investment, Complete AI Agent Platform Construction
Hybrid Orchestrator Self-Design, Over-the-Counter Derivatives Processing Time Reduced from 2 Hours to 5 Minutes
A case of applying AI agents to actual business systems in a financial regulatory environment has emerged domestically. Shinhan Investment, in collaboration with Google Cloud, has completed a next-generation AI agent platform that complies with financial security regulations such as network segregation while integrating with internal core business data and systems. Practical results have been confirmed, including reducing over-the-counter derivatives contract processing time from 2 hours to 5 minutes per case.
Google Cloud announced on the 18th that Shinhan Investment has built an AI agent platform based on its cloud infrastructure. Shinhan Investment established an AX headquarters to promote AI transformation (AX) by 2026, selected 'AX coordinators' by department, and conducted business-led agent development, generating over 500 agents. This platform was built to organically integrate these agents with internal key business data and financial systems.
Application of Hybrid Orchestrator and Data Flywheel Structure
While utilizing the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, Shinhan Investment self-designed and applied a 'hybrid orchestrator' structure tailored to the financial environment. For tasks requiring accuracy and consistency, such as fund transfers, the system processes based on pre-defined rule sets, and calls LLMs such as Gemini only in areas requiring reasoning, such as contract analysis, thereby securing both stability and flexibility, according to the company. Additionally, the company has implemented a 'data flywheel' structure that accumulates business processing results and feedback in BigQuery and similar platforms for continuous agent utilization.
In terms of security, the company went through relevant procedures including innovative financial services approval, CSP safety assessment, cloud usage reporting, and security due diligence. The company maintains network segregation through dedicated lines between the internal network and Google Cloud and VPC service controls, and has applied LLM utilization area segregation and data loss prevention (DLP) solutions.
Over-the-Counter Derivatives Contract Processing Time Reduced from 2 Hours to 5 Minutes
The platform is currently operating as a closed beta for some employees and is preparing for official launch. The representative achievement came from the over-the-counter derivatives contract processing task. Previously, 3 to 4 staff members manually reviewed unstructured contracts of approximately 50 pages and then manually entered about 50 items into the internal system. After introducing the agent, the process was automated from email selection to system entry, reducing the processing time per case from 2 hours to 5 minutes. Shinhan Investment plans to increase the automation rate of agent-based tasks to over 70% focusing on tasks targeted for automation.
Noh Hyun-bin, Head of AX Planning at Shinhan Investment, stated, "We were able to complete the platform construction in just 3 months based on the Google Cloud environment, whereas the existing development method would have required a minimum of 1 year or more."
Lee Seon-hun, CEO of Shinhan Investment, said, "We will pioneer a new direction for Korea-style financial AX based on the agent platform."
Ruth Sun, President of Google Cloud Korea, said, "This case can provide direction to financial institutions looking to apply AI agents to actual operations in regulated industries."
