Bespin Global and JB Financial Group announced on the 29th that they will push enterprise-wide AI transformation (AX). The initiative is based on a common AI platform and dedicated squads.
The project starts by setting group-wide common standards, then has each affiliate apply functions suited to its own work environment based on those standards. JB Financial Group will establish group-level AI technology, platform, and operations standards, while affiliates such as Jeonbuk Bank, Kwangju Bank, and JB Woori Capital will apply functions tailored to their work environments and business needs based on the common standards. The project will proceed in a way that reflects both the holding company’s common standards and each affiliate’s specific business characteristics.
Through this approach, the group aims to standardize its overall AI operating framework while preserving each affiliate’s system environment and business characteristics. The goal is to create an environment in which frontline users can use agents in their work without directly handling complex AI technology.
The two sides will apply a hybrid AI environment in consideration of security and data control requirements in the financial sector. The AI platform and agent operations will be kept in affiliates’ internal, on-premises environments, while an external public-cloud-based playground will be used to experiment with and verify the latest large language model (LLM) and agent technologies.
This structure separates the roles of the internal and external environments. The role of the internal environment is to secure stability and security, while the role of the external environment is to rapidly test new technologies and then determine whether they should be applied to actual operations. The structure is intended to maintain the financial sector’s control standards while also accelerating AI adoption.
To that end, the company will operate dedicated squads while building the platform in parallel. The squads will consist of business staff from each affiliate and AI and IT specialists. They will define business problems, review applicability, and carry out procedures to plan, develop, and verify agents. If needed, Bespin Global’s AI, data, and development staff will be assigned to each task.
The current focus areas for AX projects are corporate loan review, AI-based software development life cycle (SDLC), and the use of work manuals and documents. The emphasis in performance validation is on actual changes in work. The criteria for confirming effectiveness are shorter work hours, higher productivity, decision-making support, and improved work quality.
After verifying performance against actual changes in work, the company plans to expand proven cases to other tasks and affiliates in the future.
The project is being pursued on the premise of changing the way projects are driven and moving away from the existing model centered on large-scale system builds. When new AI technologies emerge, they will first be tested in the playground, and after actual business effectiveness is confirmed, the verified technologies and business models will be standardized. The resulting standards will then be rolled out across the group.
JB Financial Group is pursuing AX internalization this year and has positioned it as a key group-wide change initiative. Bespin Global has experience in AI, cloud, and data projects across multiple industries, including finance, and will participate in execution with its specialized personnel.
Bespin Global and JB Financial Group plan to expand AI agent use cases that have proven effective in actual operations across all affiliates. To this end, they have decided to build both a group-level operating framework and an execution organization, rather than introducing a single service. They also plan to expand the scope of AX adoption by building the operating framework and execution organization.
Bespin Global Vice President and CAIO Han Seon-ho said the keys to success for AX in the financial sector are quickly solving frontline problems with AI and spreading results across the entire organization. He said the company will push ahead with the parallel implementation of group-wide standards and affiliate-specific business specialization, and explained that it plans to combine the platform, specialized squads, and AX experience. He also expressed the company’s determination to build a new execution model for the financial sector.
