NatWest Group wanted to give colleagues secure, compliant generative AI tools that help them find information, summarize documents, draft content, and work more efficiently at bank-wide scale.

99% of our colleagues

Reported impact

Business outcome

NatWest rolled the tools out to 99% of colleagues, launched training for compliant use, and says the deployment helps colleagues work smarter while creating a launchpad for other GenAI use cases across the bank.

  • Productivity Improvement
  • Scalability

Solution

NatWest Group is rolling out two internal generative AI capabilities to 99% of employees as a governed workplace-assistance layer. The first is the AI Digital Enabler for NatWest, which the company describes as an internal version of ChatGPT that gives colleagues a simple, secure and controlled environment for experimentation. It is used for summarising documents, problem-solving, drafting content and brainstorming ideas. The second is Microsoft Copilot Chat, which answers questions, generates content and helps employees find information quickly. The rollout is supported by a full training programme and NatWest's AI and Data Ethics Code of Conduct to encourage compliant use. The page does not describe underlying storage, model hosting or named integrations, but it clearly documents an enterprise implementation of GenAI tools for internal knowledge work and reuse across future bank use cases.
