Bespin Global and JB Financial Group are joining forces. The two sides announced on the 29th that they will begin work on building an AX execution framework and platform optimized for the financial sector environment.
The collaboration adopts a structure that combines an on-premises environment that meets financial security requirements with a public cloud for rapid technology experimentation. This infrastructure is a "hybrid architecture."
Based on this, the two sides aim to accelerate the rollout of AI agents for actual business operations. The focus of the collaboration is to move away from large-scale, one-off SI projects.
They will also first establish common group-wide standards and then pursue a direction that reflects the operational characteristics of each affiliate on top of those standards. The goal is to establish an execution framework that can deliver tangible business results.
Specifically, JB Financial Group will establish group-wide AX direction and common standards centered on JB Financial Holding. Each affiliate, including Jeonbuk Bank, Gwangju Bank, and JB Woori Capital, will apply functions specialized to its own operating environment based on the common AI platform.
The two companies adopted a "hybrid AX infrastructure" to ensure both regulatory compliance and innovation speed while securing control and security of financial data. Accordingly, the operating structure has been divided into two parts: a self-hosted environment and an external public cloud. Core AI platforms and agents will run in the self-hosted environments of each affiliate, while a "Playground" has been established in the external public cloud. The "Playground" will be used to quickly test and validate the latest large language models (LLM) and agent technologies.
The organization carrying out this structure is an agile-based "dedicated Squad" system. Business staff from each affiliate, IT specialists, and Bespin Global AI and data engineers will form one team. This team will handle planning, development, and validation of the tasks.
The two companies will first push ahead with AX projects centered on core tasks with strong practical impact. The initial AX projects will include upgrading corporate credit review, innovating the AI-based software development lifecycle (SDLC), and automating the use of internal work manuals and documents. The strategy focuses on first proving concrete business outcomes such as shorter work hours and higher productivity, rather than simply introducing new technology. Verified models will then be rolled out horizontally to other affiliates.
Hahn Seon-ho, vice president at Bespin Global, said that the benchmark for success or failure in AX in the financial sector lies not in building an AI platform itself, but in quickly resolving frontline business problems through AI and spreading results across the organization. Based on this, he said Bespin Global will work with JB Financial Group to combine platform capabilities, specialized squads, and Bespin Global's broad AX experience to build a new AX execution model for the financial sector that achieves both group-wide standardization and affiliate-specific specialization at the same time.
