Anthropic announced ten ready-to-run agent templates for financial-services work on 5 May, covering tasks such as pitchbooks, KYC screening, valuation review and month-end close.
The company says the templates ship as plugins in Claude Cowork and Claude Code, and as cookbooks for Claude Managed Agents, giving firms reference architectures rather than a blank API surface.
Anthropic also described Claude add-ins for Microsoft 365 and an expanded connector ecosystem so agents can work with financial data under governed access.
