Problem
Banks face extreme regulatory complexity, with fragmented data and a sprawling corpus of regulations, standards, and guidance that is difficult to navigate. This leads to conservative interpretations, excess capital buffers, idle capital, and decisions that take weeks instead of hours, hampering growth and operational efficiency.
Solution
BARK Technologies provides a proprietary, living knowledge graph that structures the full corpus of banking regulations into a versioned, connected database. The platform computes answers to regulatory questions, citing every claim to the specific article and version it stands on. It integrates directly with AI tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and Codex via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing users to ask questions in plain language and receive source-backed answers. BARK also connects the regulation to a bank's own knowledge and data, normalizing data to one schema with full lineage, enabling traceability from every number back to the article that requires it. The platform supports research, regulatory reporting, inventory management, monitoring, modelling, and balance sheet optimization on the same underlying graph.
Target Audience
Primary users are regulatory, treasury, risk, and finance teams at banks and financial institutions, ranging from individual professionals using the free research tier to banking groups deploying the full enterprise platform.
Features
- Regulatory knowledge graph database covering the full EU corpus: regulations, directives, technical standards, EBA guidelines, Single Rulebook Q&A, and national rules, all versioned and linked
- MCP-based connector for AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Microsoft Copilot) with OAuth 2.1 authentication, providing read-only access to the regulatory corpus
- Answers cited to specific articles with version and date, including past, present, and future versions of rules (changes decided but not yet in force)
- BARK Workspace for collaborative projects with git-like version history, validated answers, and report generation
- Enterprise platform with COREP/FINREP cell-level traceability to underlying regulations, regulatory inventory management, impact monitoring, and ICAAP/ILAAP/stress-test modelling
- Data normalization to one schema with full lineage, enabling reconciliation and balance sheet optimization by identifying idle capital and the interpretations behind it
