The event focused on the latest developments in the Open-Source Risk Engine (ORE) ecosystem.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>I presented on two key areas during the summit:&lt;/p>
&lt;ol>
&lt;li>
&lt;p>&lt;strong>ORE in the Era of Agentic AI&lt;/strong>
This presentation explored how Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI agents are transforming quantitative finance. Key topics covered included:&lt;/p>
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>The capabilities and limitations of modern LLMs in writing pricing and risk models.&lt;/li>
&lt;li>Real-world use cases of AI agents automating workflows and creating value within the ORE framework.&lt;/li>
&lt;li>The integration of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to connect AI agents directly with specialized quantitative tools.&lt;/li>
&lt;li>LSEG&amp;rsquo;s collaborative efforts in this space, including partnerships with leading AI labs like Anthropic.&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
&lt;/li>
&lt;li>
&lt;p>&lt;strong>LSEG’s Internal Adoption of ORE&lt;/strong>
This talk discussed LSEG’s internal adoption, integration, and scaling of the Open-Source Risk Engine (ORE) across its post-trade services and risk management infrastructure, showcasing the practical value of open-source analytics at scale.&lt;/p>
&lt;/li>
&lt;/ol>
&lt;p>It was fantastic to connect with other quantitative researchers, developers, and risk professionals to discuss the future of open-source risk analytics, enterprise integration, and artificial intelligence.&lt;/p>
