Frankfurt/Amsterdam, October 13, 2020 – Cooperative Rabobank U.A. (Rabobank), a large bank in the Netherlands, has decided on outsourcing parts of their regulatory reporting processes to BearingPoint RegTech. Rabobank is a cooperative bank based in Utrecht with multinational operations and consists of around ninety local Rabobanks in the Netherlands.

Rabobank will use Abacus360 Banking for European regulatory reporting according the requirements of the European Banking Authority (EBA) including CoRep and FinRep. Rabobank decided not to host the software on premise, but to have it operated by BearingPoint RegTech on the digital RegTech Factory as a managed service or, more common in regulatory reporting, RaaS (Regulatory-as-a-Service).  

We were looking for a solution provider, who is able to really unburden us from regulatory reporting efforts by delivering both a standardized reporting software and managed services including regulatory maintenance of the solution.

Rabobank’s decision is a very important milestone for BearingPoint RegTech in two respects: firstly, it is a major step for our international expansion, and secondly it underlines the importance of our RegTech Factory strategy.
