ZURICH, ‌Oct 27 (Reuters) - ​UBS ​CEO Sergio Ermotti said ‌on Tuesday his bank's ⁠integration of fallen ‌rival Credit Suisse, ‌which it acquired in 2023, forced ​it to slow its ⁠deployment of AI somewhat, but ​now the lender can put even ​more emphasis on ‌technology.

Ermotti, who was speaking ⁠at an event at the ETH ⁠university in Zurich, also ​said the bank was not allowing any outside ‌AI agents to enter UBS ‌on behalf ⁠of ‌clients.
