SK C&C is gathering the dispersed AI capabilities within the SK Group in the AIX division, which was officially launched last December together with SK Telecom, and is promoting AI business-to-business (B2B) transactions.

SK C&C and SK Telecom are securing AI transformation cases that reflect the business characteristics of group companies in key industries such as energy, semiconductors, and batteries by utilizing AI models that have been market-validated like Market Caster.

AI intelligence analyzes market environment, consumer trends, competitor information, and competitive indicators using AI technology, reflecting the characteristics of each industry and customer demands. Through this, it provides indicators necessary for demand or price trend forecasting, portfolio optimization, and risk management to assist corporate decision-making.

The two companies plan to support industry-specific specialized AI agents that can reduce the time, cost, and management burden for companies to build and operate AI intelligence services.

These agents are designed based on SK C&C's financial AI intelligence Market Caster technology. Market Caster provides AI advisors and AI trading services specialized in recommending, ordering, and managing financial products. According to SK C&C, Market Caster has achieved an annual return rate of over 20% even during downturns in the highly volatile global stock market. Market Caster is also applied to Meritz Securities' AI stock order optimization system.

The two companies plan to support customer decision-making with AI agents utilizing Market Caster beyond the financial market into advanced manufacturing industries. Jiwon Cha, Head of SK C&C AT Service Division 1, said, "As global economic uncertainty increases, the process of enhancing decision-making using AI and big data is becoming an essential element across various industries," adding, "Market Caster will provide customized AI agents tailored to the group's key industries based on AI big data analysis capabilities and support more advanced customer-tailored AI intelligence services."
