This is the direction Everest Group tracked in its recent report, Innovation Watch: Agentic AI in Wealth Management Technology, which reviewed more than 30 technology providers and spotlighted 16 with agentic AI solutions in wealth management. Etops was featured among the Influencers in that assessment.
The report’s central observation is that wealth technology is moving from standalone AI copilots toward connected, agentic workflows spanning advisory, portfolio, risk and compliance. An isolated copilot can draft a note or answer a question, but it works from whatever data happens to sit in front of it. Connected intelligence works across the whole picture, which is only possible when the underlying data is unified in the first place.
Connected intelligence cannot run on fragmented data. If client information is scattered across custodians, banks, spreadsheets and separate reporting tools, no amount of AI on top will make it coherent. The first thing to evaluate in any wealth management software is how well it consolidates.
For European wealth managers and family offices, consolidation covers portfolio aggregation across custodians, multi-bank client data in one view, and the assets that generic tools often miss. Illiquid assets and private markets reporting for family offices are common failure points, and they often hold a large part of a client’s real wealth. Once the data comes from a single source, consolidated reporting for wealth managers gets faster, and automating client reporting becomes practical.
When evaluating wealth management software in Europe in 2026, these are the criteria that separate a real platform from a set of tools presented together:
A platform can meet most of these criteria and still fall short if the data underneath is fragmented. Consolidation is what makes the rest work.
etops Wealth Discovery is built on that foundation. It consolidates all of a client’s wealth, liquid and illiquid, from bankable assets to real estate, private equity and collectibles, into a single view, with real-time analytics, performance calculation and reporting on top. It integrates CRM and client lifecycle management, and includes regulatory modules for KYC, AML and investor protection, so client relationships and compliance work sit in the same platform as the data.
Apollo, Olymp’s AI co-pilot, runs directly inside etops Wealth Discovery. It handles time-consuming admin such as KYC extraction, meeting transcription and contract generation, and it answers questions on the consolidated portfolio data. Apollo is developed and hosted in Switzerland with full encryption, which keeps client data in a jurisdiction European wealth managers trust. etops Wealth Discovery also includes a native AI Copilot, currently in alpha, that summarizes client profiles and supports notetaking in the advisory workflow. Etops was named among the Influencers in the Everest Group report for this work.
For wealth managers choosing software in 2026, the question worth asking is whether the platform consolidates client data well enough for AI to work on it. In Europe, that has to happen within regulatory requirements on data residency and oversight.
