About the Project
Bringing Private Generative AI Into Wealth Management Operations
A US-based wealth management advisory firm developed a proprietary, fine-tuned Llama 3 70B model to support portfolio analysis, financial document reviews, and regulatory compliance workflows. However, deploying such a large model required secure infrastructure, reliable inference performance, and complex GPU management. Creole Studios helped the firm prepare and deploy its custom AI model on Amazon Bedrock, establishing a secure, managed AWS environment integrated with its existing advisory applications.
Project Challenges
Moving a proprietary financial AI model into production required more than configuring an inference endpoint. The deployment needed to address model compatibility, infrastructure management, performance, security, and financial-sector operational requirements.
Deploying a Fine-Tuned 70B Model: The fine-tuned Llama 3 70B model required weight validation, LoRA adapter merging, and compatible packaging to meet Bedrock’s import standards without losing financial domain accuracy.
Eliminating GPU Infrastructure Overhead: Without an in-house MLOps team, the client needed to avoid managing complex GPU servers, custom serving stacks, and continuous hardware maintenance.
Ensuring Peak-Hour Inference Reliability: High trading volumes and concurrent portfolio analyses required low-latency, uninterrupted model availability during peak market hours.
Securing Sensitive Financial Data: Protecting proprietary portfolios and client records demanded private AWS networking, end-to-end encryption, and granular access controls.
Meeting Strict Financial Compliance: The deployment had to satisfy SEC and FINRA standards through strict access policies, KMS-level encryption, and tamper-proof audit logging.
Controlling Ongoing Cloud Costs: The client required a cost-efficient deployment model that eliminated dedicated GPU waste while sustaining enterprise advisory workloads.
How Did We Help?
Creole Studios implemented a phased AI model deployment approach, covering model assessment, Amazon Bedrock deployment, security configuration, application integration, and production validation.
The outcome
Creole Studios successfully deployed the client’s fine-tuned Llama 3 70B model on Amazon Bedrock within 4 weeks, enabling secure AI inference through private AWS connectivity, IAM controls, and encryption. The deployment eliminated direct GPU infrastructure management, integrated seamlessly with existing advisory applications, and achieved a reported 55% reduction in total cost of ownership and 42 ms p95 serving latency, supporting efficient financial analysis and compliance workflows.
