As organisations increasingly use AI to navigate growing volumes of information, the quality, context, and traceability of the underlying data are essential, says S&P. Rather than placing data into a standalone AI environment, the partnership connects licensed S&P Global content to Microsoft 365 Copilot experiences, including a Copilot in Excel connector for analyst workflows and a plugin for agentic experiences in Copilot Cowork. This means that customers can apply S&P Global intelligence to tasks such as company research, financial analysis, transcript intelligence, peer benchmarking and competitive analysis without leaving Microsoft 365. Sally Moore, chief client officer and co-head of market intelligence, S&P Global, says: "We are meeting clients where they work, embedding S&P Global's trusted, high-quality data directly into their workflows and unlocking agentic capabilities that turn insight into action and enable faster, more informed decision-making." Bill Borden, corporate VP, worldwide financial services, Microsoft, adds: "By integrating S&P Global's essential intelligence directly into Microsoft 365 Copilot and agentic experiences, we're bringing the power of data and AI into the flow of work, helping financial institutions make faster, more confident decisions with transparency, context and traceability at every step."
