Futu Launches New AI Functions, Enhancing Experience Throughout Users' Investment Cycle Leading “AI x Investment” Investment Industry Elevation

(Hong Kong, March 21, 2025) Futu Securities International (Hong Kong) Limited ("Futu") today unveiled a suite of innovative product features, including Futubull AI, a new “Insights” page personalizing investment theme recommendation, Option Strategy Builder, Futu Algo Trading and other platform upgrades at Hong Kong’s largest retail investment exhibition, the Futu Investment Exhibition “Futu Expo”, held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.  Mr. Leaf Hua Li, Futu's Founder and Chairman introduced the Futu platform’s official integration with DeepSeek and revealed several AI-powered features designed to empower retail investors with cutting-edge investment tools and further Futu’s vision for financial inclusion.

"Futubull AI" Provides Professional Investment Assistance Throughout the Investment Cycle

Futu is proud to announce the launch of Futubull AI, a chatbot feature integrated with DeepSeek-R1. Unlike the previous one-way "AI Stock Interpretation" feature, Futubull AI can flexibly handle complex queries, serving as a conversational investment assistant that empowers users at every stage of the investment process.

Novice investors overwhelmed by the abundance of information can now rely on Futubull AI for guidance to analyze stocks with enhanced efficiency and accuracy. In the future, Futu plans to continue improving the AI’s capabilities, so that it can screen suitable investment targets from millions of securities*. With these upgraded features, investors will be able to further analyze and compare stocks, as well as formulate investment strategies and decisions. For advanced investors, Futu plans to launch AI Algo Trading*, a highly intelligent solution providing retail investors with low-threshold and affordable quantitative trading tools. This function will allow customers to automate trading and follow strategies without spending much time monitoring real-time data.

Reliable AI Tools with High-Quality Training

Futu believes that high-quality training is required to build valuable AI models for investors. In addition to leveraging publicly available trading intelligence, the Futubull AI will undergo a rigorous training process* with Futu’s robust information database, which includes advanced market data, capital flow, technical trends, macro data, and multiple indicators. Futu's technical team will dedicate significant time and resources to AI model training to adopt the logical reasoning of professional investors. With more professional, real-time and diversified sources of training data, Futubull AI’s responses will become increasingly accurate and reliable.

Each piece of data cited by the Futubull AI will undergo stringent screening and be authenticated by a reliable source. This will effectively reduce the probability of AI being affected by false information, thereby minimising the occurrence of "AI hallucinations."

Twelve years ago, Futu led the industry with its ground-breaking self-developed online trading system, providing users with an unimagined trading experience. As a pioneer among Hong Kong tech brokers, Futu has always been on the forefront of fintech innovations. Entering into the AI era, Futu prioritizes security, compliance, and effectiveness while harnessing AI advancements to redefine investment experiences. It strikes to translate technological innovations into tangible customer values, taking financial services to the next level.

Mr. Leaf Hua Li said, "The popularization of AI technology application will undoubtedly elevate the financial industry to a new height, greatly advancing the development of financial inclusion by enhancing investment efficiency and reducing investment barriers. Looking ahead, we will continue to increase investment in AI and talent acquisition. Abiding by the principles of Security, Compliance and Effectiveness, we will explore different forms of AI and investment integration based on existing product roadmap, including investor education, investment advisory, and customer service.
