What is an agent network? How LLM agents coordinate across organizational boundaries.
An agent network (or A2A network) is a system where multiple independent LLM-based agents communicate to solve multi-step tasks. Unlike single-agent chatbots, agents delegate work to each other (e.g., bank's fraud agent hands off to compliance agent, which calls a third-party KYC vendor's agent). Each agent operates under its own trust boundary—key for cross-organizational workflows in BFSI.
WHY IT MATTERS
Core pattern for fintech infra. Example: A BFSI player's onboarding agent calls a third-party sanctions-check agent; compliance reports back. Trust calibration and semantic alignment between agents is unsolved—new research area.
