The Moscow Exchange conducted a survey that found that 60% of private investors are willing to purchase an investment instrument managed by artificial intelligence. Eighty-nine percent of respondents also indicated that human oversight remains an important factor when using AI in investments.
The study covered the opinions of 533 private investors across Russia, aged 25 to 65.
28% of respondents were not currently ready to purchase an investment instrument managed by artificial intelligence without human intervention, while 13% found it difficult to answer.
62% of respondents said they trust AI in investment matters. 27% did not trust it, and the remaining 11% were unsure.
Among those ready to invest in AI, almost half (45%) are aged 35–44, and the majority (60%) are residents of cities with a population of over a million. 36% invest several times a month, 29% several times a week, another 29% once a month or less, and 6% daily.
The majority of investors (75%) responded that they are willing to pay a fee for AI-based asset management, with 48% of respondents willing to pay the same fee as a real management company, 20% willing to pay less, and 7% willing to pay more. Those willing to pay more than usual, on average, would accept a 12% increase in fees, while those willing to pay less, would accept a 3% decrease.
According to the study, the most common barriers to trusting artificial intelligence in investment were the risk of errors or hallucinations (52%), concerns about the security of personal and financial data (44%), lack of experience or knowledge in working with AI tools (32%), and lack of transparency in algorithms (30%).
Viktor Zhidkov, Chairman of the Board of Moscow Exchange:
"Artificial intelligence is changing the logic of investment decisions, and our research confirms this. Today, AI assistants allow users to instantly receive interpretations of important news and understandable analysis of company reports. And in the future, AI could become a catalyst for the formation of a class of "intelligent investors" and help overcome the barrier associated with insufficient financial literacy."
