Absa Experiments with Microsoft Copilot to Boost Employee Efficiency
South African financial services group Absa experimented with Microsoft 365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot and Copilot for Sales across its corporate and investment banking, relationship banking, legal and marketing teams. Employees used Copilot to summarize financial statements and contracts, translate documents, summarize emails and build Excel analyses; the story quotes an Absa executive saying Copilot saves at least two hours per day for some users, and a marketing colleague saying reading and summarizing a set of PDF documents took 20 minutes.
