The AI Financial Advice Accuracy Test

PR Campaign
Wednesday 12th August, 2026

Fintech firm Saturn tested 18 popular AI models against 121 real financial questions, asking each five times to measure both accuracy and consistency. Its report found that the models gave wrong answers 57% of the time, creating a sharp, media-friendly warning about the risks of trusting chatbots with pensions, mortgages and insurance decisions.

Why it worked: It packaged a hard, scary number—57% wrong—backed by a transparent, repeat-measure test across 18 models and 121 real questions.

The lesson: Consider stress-testing a common tool across real tasks five times, publish the failure rate, and rank winners and losers by consistency.
