Graeme Faulds on AI and the future of the investment workspace

AI is reshaping investment operations – but separating signal from noise has never been more critical.

In this episode of Investment Management Operations, a Capital Allocators podcast, host Scott MacDonald sits down with Graeme Faulds, Bipsync CEO, to explore what it really takes to apply AI inside institutional investment workflows. Drawing on his background as both private markets investor and fintech founder, Graeme makes the case that AI delivers value only when built on well-structured institutional knowledge.

The conversation examines why organizing unstructured research has been Bipsync’s focus for more than a decade, and why that work now matters more than ever. Graeme discusses the difference between AI hype and practical use cases, how leading allocators are approaching data strategy and governance, and why new, more technical roles are emerging across investment and operations teams.

From surfacing institutional memory in seconds to supporting compliance and risk analysis, the episode highlights how AI can enhance decision-making without compromising security, permissioning, or human judgement.
