Agentic AI Tackles T+1 Settlement Pressures
Fintech Finance News reports that Smartstream has launched a new version of Smart Reconciliations Premium, applying agentic AI to autonomously investigate and resolve reconciliation exceptions. The outlet highlights the platform’s fit for T+1 settlement environments, citing a 25% reduction in total cost of ownership and a 50% increase in throughput across eight global reconciliation domains, with Smart Agents handling break investigation end to end rather than simply flagging errors for manual review.
GRIT Framework Drives Governance and ROI
The article frames the release around Smartstream’s GRIT framework – Governance, ROI, Integration and Trust – describing centralised controls that keep AI actions auditable, alongside outbound APIs and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that let enterprise systems trigger workflows within existing permissions. Fintech Finance News concludes that by moving AI from a passive observer to an active participant in the back office, Smartstream is positioning itself as a leader in the next generation of post-trade automation.
