Suade harnesses the wisdom of the community to empower financial institutions with transformational technology
The Wisdom of the Community
Democratising and distributing the knowledge of experts
FIRE: The only free, open-source, globally harmonised data model for regulatory data
We all agree the devil is in the data. So why do so many firms put their regulatory destiny in proprietary data formats? The Financial Regulatory (FIRE) Data Standard was launched in 2015 with support from the EU Commission and the Open Data Institute to uncover and describe the fundamental data model underpinning financial regulation. Since then, the data standard has been extended to cover hundreds of the UK, US, Canadian and Singaporean regulations with support from over 50 financial institutions.
RUUF: A unique, anonymous, peer-to-peer forum for regulatory professionals
Regulations can be hard to interpret and even harder to implement. At Suade, we have always believed that these regulatory challenges can be better addressed through industry collaboration, so we developed the RUUF - an industry platform which facilitates open discussions between industry professionals on regulatory topics and queries. Contributors include financial institutions, academics, regulators and other industry professionals.
Regulatory intelligence that empowers users at every layer of the process
Cutting edge tools to help users focus on understanding data and regulations rather than making reports

Knowing your customer's customer
At Suade, we see the regulator as a regulated firm's most important customer. So we maintain close engagement with public sector entities, central banks and regulatory bodies to ensure our features and functionalities align with the needs of the most important customer.
Transformational technology to do more than just regulatory reporting
Technology built for the future, not the past
80/20 means your software should be doing the heavy lifting, not you
Suade leverages proprietary NLP technology to standardise and automate as much as possible. Our standard subscription license includes pre-configured taxonomies, risk calculations, templates, validations, data quality checks, reconciliations, exports and all regulatory updates.
Regulatory updates delivered regularly
At Suade, we apply a process of continuous reg maintenance which means that the time from raising a ticket to receiving the update can be a matter of hours. More importantly, Suade can match your internal operational UAT process to deliver updates and features around the firm's busy schedule rather than the other way around.
A reg-aware, cloud-native soluton
Cloud-native and cloud agnostic since 2014, Suade offers a single-tenant, secure, SOC2 and ISO27001-certified managed service specifically designed for regulated firms.
”Implementing the Suade solution was a seamless process,” commented Robert Hooper, Managing Director, Technology, TD Securities. “Suade enables us to fully decouple traditional vendor proprietary data formatting, provides fully transparent end-to-end data lineage and allows us to meet new regulatory obligations quickly and cost-effectively. Their innovative 'Regulation-as-a-Service' offering was a major factor in their selection for our Regulatory Reporting."
“Coventry Building Society has been focusing on its digital transformation programme to provide an enhanced offering to our members, whilst improving both risk mitigation and cost efficiency”, commented Coventry Building Society’s Chief Financial Officer, Lee Raybould. “Suade will be a strategic partner in this endeavour, enhancing the value of our investment in regulatory technology, optimising efficiency, and delivering business insights. We are looking forward to realising the benefits of the platform and delivering tangible benefits across the wider business."
”We have worked with Suade since the company's inception in 2014. We could tell from the beginning that they would be a game changer for regulatory reporting and regulatory compliance. Metro Bank is proud to have been part of their growth and to have been one of their first clients. Suade’s adaptable platform is powerful, cost-effective and incredibly user-friendly. It enables us to spend more time focusing on analysis and strategic decision making. It has also helped us to accelerate data cleansing, reduce the total cost of ownership and dependency on professional services. This is a company that is truly delivering Regulation as a Service!"
”It is essential to stay on top of multiple regulatory requirements and reporting needs, especially in today's volatile environment” said Christopher White, CFO at Darlington Building Society. “Our aim is to build a trusted and scalable regulatory reporting ecosystem that runs securely on the cloud. Suade's ecosystem caters for all current and future regulatory requirements aligning with our objective of fostering transparency, automation, and efficiency throughout our entire process. We are delighted to have joined Suade's community group"
