Anthropic releases 10 new AI financial service agent templates

Anthropic has released 10 new AI agent templates designed to handle a broader range of financial services tasks, such as drafting client meeting presentation materials, reviewing financial statements, market research, valuation reviews, report audits, screening KYC documents, and month-end closing, among others. Each agent is released as a plugin for Claude Cowork and Claude Code, as well as a manual (cookbook) for Claude Managed Agents.

Claude can now also operate through the Claude plugin for Microsoft 365, running in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and Outlook (coming soon).
