Problem
Swiss banks publish their financial results in audited annual reports, but these documents are lengthy, use varied charts of accounts, and are difficult to compare directly. Bank executives, analysts, and board members lack a fast, reliable way to benchmark their bank's performance against peers without manual data extraction and normalization.
Solution
bankenkompass.ch provides a benchmarking platform that automatically extracts, normalizes, and validates key figures from over 100 Swiss banks' audited annual reports. The platform uses AI to read PDFs, detect tables, and extract line items, then applies seven automatic validation checks per report with human review for flagged values. Users can explore efficiency, income structure, and growth metrics through interactive comparisons, filter data by bank type, region, and size, and access 53 sector studies. Every figure links directly to the page in the source annual report, ensuring full traceability and citable evidence for board-level presentations.
Target Audience
Primary users are Swiss bank executives, board members, analysts, and financial professionals who need peer benchmarking and citable financial data for strategic decisions and reporting.
