Overview
The biggest move is that NVIDIA is considering investing $10B in Anthropic's IPO (valuation $2.3T) (Reuters, TradingView). Massive investments by asset management companies continue, with BlackRock participating in Meta's $14B data center business. On the other hand, there are also concerns about the collapse of AI hedge funds and overheating of the AI market (WSJ, Finbold).
Bank trends
M&T Bank has expanded its use of AI for businesses after several years of reviewing its technology infrastructure (AI News). In Brazil, an AI solutions bank for public administration was launched (TV BRICS). At Citi's conference, Zscaler's CEO pointed to the growing demand for AI security and the trend toward zero trust (Yahoo Finance). In Japan, ZEALS has started providing ``Omakase AI'' to Mitsubishi UFJ Bank's digital customer contact points (MarkeZine).
Insurance trends
A JD Power study found that approximately one in three insurance customers uses AI (Dallas Express). Bloomberg reported that AI data centers are expected to fuel "explosive" growth in captive insurance. In the field of workers' compensation insurance, discussions on the future of human resources/knowledge transfer and AI were introduced (Risk & Insurance).
Trends in asset management and market transactions
BlackRock participates in investing in Meta's $14B data center business (Stocktwits). AI hedge fund faces huge losses and is on the verge of collapse (GV Wire). According to WSJ, major AI developers agree on the need to slow down development. Wall Street has also warned that the AI boom is on "borrowed time" (Finbold). CoinDesk discusses switching from bonds to Bitcoin to address the problem of AI-heavy portfolios.
Fintech/payment trends
A survey by Visa Research found that while 72% would use AI, only 23% would trust it to handle payments. S&P Global reported that US consumers are wary of stablecoins and agent-based AI (The Fintech Times). Robinhood Markets has announced that it aims to expand globally with a focus on tokenization, AI trading, and wealth businesses (Yahoo Finance).
Remarks from key figures and authorities in the financial world
- Jamie Dimon, Larry Fink, Jane Fraser, David Solomon, Brian Moynihan, Ted Pick, Ken Griffin, Paul Atkins: No direct statements or actions that fall under the heading are found. No notable movement. - NVIDIA's CEO (Jensen Huang, company name not specified, but given the context of the headline) dismissed Anthropic executives' AI "Doomsday" warning as "outstanding" and "totally untrue" (Stocktwits). - Sam Altman (OpenAI) said this is the "wrong time" for an IPO and will not go public this year (Fortune).
Trends in AI-related stocks and funding
It was reported that NVIDIA is considering investing $10B in Anthropic's IPO with a valuation of $2.3T (Reuters, TradingView, Pluang). Seeking Alpha picked three AI-related stocks with an average forward EPS growth rate of 296% on the back of the data center boom. For Adobe, triple-digit AI-driven ARR growth was cited as an alpha opportunity (Seeking Alpha). HPE's AI backlog has reached $7.6bn, outpacing memory chip supply (Financial-News.co.uk).
Trends in financial regulation and supervision
There are no direct AI-related regulatory announcements by financial authorities (SEC, FSB, Financial Services Agency, etc.) in the headlines. Although there is a call for AI training for staff by Nigeria's Interior Perm Sec (nigerianpilot.net), it is not financial supervision itself. No notable movement.
Integrated analysis: What is happening now
The main flow of funds continues to be AI infrastructure investment, with semiconductor companies and asset management companies continuing to inject capital into the AI infrastructure of large tech companies, as seen in NVIDIA's consideration of a $10B investment in Anthropic and BlackRock's $14B investment in Meta data centers. On the other hand, risks have come to the fore in the form of warnings that the ``AI boom is on borrowed time'' (Finbold), the collapse of AI hedge funds (GV Wire), and major AI development companies themselves agreeing to slow down the speed of development (WSJ), showing a bipolar structure where optimism and caution exist at the same time. In payments, there is a disconnect between the speed of technology adoption and the speed of building customer trust, as evidenced by the large gap between AI adoption (72%) and trust (23%) (Visa Research) and consumer wariness of stablecoin/agent AI (S&P Global). The lack of headlines about explicit moves by regulators suggests that increased investment on the market and industry side may be ahead of supervisory responses.
Future points of interest
- Whether the $10B investment in NVIDIA's Anthropic IPO (valued at $2.3T) actually closes and the subsequent impact on capital allocation within the industry. - How the collapse of AI hedge funds will affect confidence in other AI-powered funds and portfolio strategies. - Whether the gap in AI usage and trust in the payment and fintech fields will prompt regulatory authorities to take action (consumer protection and stablecoin regulations).

Macquarie's Future Secure AI is reportedly approaching a valuation of $1.8 billion in pre-listing funding (AFR).

A Saudi payments industry official said AI compute could become the world's most valuable asset (Yellow.com).

Remarks from key figures and authorities in the financial world
- Dario Amodei (Anthropic CEO): ``The exponential growth of AI is a warning sign'' and continues to call for stronger AI safety measures (asiainsurancepost.com). He also called for "slowing down" the race to develop frontier AI, proposed a global security framework, and warned that "things could go in the wrong direction" (PRESS Insider, Big News Network.com, Forbes JAPAN). It is also reported that he has declared a slowdown in AI development (bluewin.ch). - Sam Altman (OpenAI CEO): While he says he does not foresee an "job apocalypse" due to AI (UA.NEWS), he has stated that he will not launch an IPO in 2026 due to the risk of AI derailment or extinction (Gulf Business, Firstpost, bluewin.ch). *For Jamie Dimon, Larry Fink, Jane Fraser, David Solomon, Brian Moynihan, Ted Pick, Ken Griffin, and Paul Atkins on the list, there is no mention of their direct statements or actions in the headings of this list.
Trends in AI-related stocks and funding

Macquarie's Future Secure AI is approaching a $1.8 billion valuation in pre-listing funding (AFR). An AI company announced it has blocked misuse of its technology that could support biological weapons development (KLTV.com).

Trends in financial regulation and supervision
European Supervisory Authorities (ESA) are asking financial institutions to implement risk reduction strategies of "prevention, detection, and management" in response to the increasing cyber risks of frontier AI (TBS NEWS DIG). Opinions are reportedly divided within the Trump administration over how to contain AI cyber risks without slowing down the AI race (The Vibes). It was reported that top executives from competing companies, including Altman, Musk, and Hassabis, supported Amodei's call to slow down the Frontier race (PRESS Insider).
Integrated analysis: What is happening now
These headlines suggest a dual structure: AI industry leaders (Amodei, Altman) themselves are publicly warning of safety and derailment risks, while capital continues to flow toward AI infrastructure, agent technology, and AI tools for asset management. SMBC's investment in an AI governance startup (Dealroom) and ESA's request for cyber risk reduction strategies for financial institutions (TBS NEWS DIG) show that the regulatory and supervisory side is strengthening its governance-oriented response to ``how to use AI safely.'' On the other hand, Macquarie's rising valuation and Yuanshi's rapid fundraising suggest that the capital market has not lost appetite for investing in AI infrastructure and physical AI areas. OpenAI's decision to hold off on its IPO (which Altman explicitly cited as citing safety concerns) is a sign that even the biggest players in the AI industry are prioritizing controlling technical and ethical risks over going public. The conflicting structure (the vibes) within the US administration of ``slowing down the AI race versus containing cyber risks'' is thought to reflect that the direction of regulation has not yet been determined.
Future points of interest
- To what extent will the agreement of top competitors such as Altman and Musk lead to concrete industry agreements (adjustment of development pace, etc.) regarding the "global safety framework" advocated by Amodei? - How will financial institutions' cyber risk mitigation strategies required by the ESA influence the responses of financial authorities in other regions, including Japan? - How will OpenAI's IPO postponement affect the funding and valuation strategies of other AI companies (such as Anthropic)?
