LG AI Research and Koscom (KOSCOM) said on Tuesday they will cooperate to provide an AI-based analysis service for South Korean financial data.
The two will combine Koscom financial data with EXAONE Business Intelligence, a financial AI agent applying LG AI Research’s prediction technology, to build an AI forecasting and analysis service specialised in the South Korean stock market.
Koscom will provide financial data needed to analyse the South Korean stock market, including domestic market trading data, corporate disclosures and domestic macroeconomic indicators. LG AI Research will use the data to optimise EXAONE BI time-series forecasting and data analysis technologies for the South Korean market environment.
EXAONE BI is a finance-focused AI in which multiple AI agents collaborate to perform data analysis, reasoning, forecasting and explanation generation, supporting complex business decision-making. AEFS (AI-Powered Equity Forecast Score), developed based on EXAONE BI, is a data product that provides a score forecasting a stock’s share price trend over the next four weeks along with the basis for the assessment in the form of commentary.
On the service, the two highlighted explainability as a point of differentiation. AEFS analyses about 8,000 stocks listed in South Korean and U.S. markets every day and provides forecast scores by stock and analysis commentary at the level of financial experts. It does not stop at forecasting share price trends, but also presents the basis on which the AI reached its assessment, supporting data-driven decision-making for investors.
LG AI Research has also launched a service in cooperation with Britain’s LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group) that uses AI to forecast and analyse stocks listed in U.S. markets.
The two plan to use Koscom’s domestic customer base and LSEG’s global distribution channels, which LG AI Research is cooperating with, to provide the South Korea-focused AI forecasting and analysis service to customers at home and abroad.
Koscom CEO Chang-hyun Yoon (윤창현) said, “In the AI era, the combination of reliable financial data and AI technology is more important than anything.” He added, “Based on Koscom’s financial data capabilities and LG AI Research’s technological strength, we will provide differentiated financial information services, and starting with this service we will introduce various products and lead the AI transition of financial markets.”
LG AI Research co-head Woo-hyung Lim (임우형) said, “In the stock market, the ability to explain why the AI presented such a result is as important as prediction accuracy.” He added, “Based on LG AI technology, we will provide reliable information to institutional and retail investors at home and abroad and contribute to innovation in AI services in the financial sector.”
