September 16, 2025 – Circit, a leading platform for audit confirmations and Open Banking, proudly announces a strategic partnership with Rabobank, a global leader in sustainable financial services. Together, we are introducing an innovative embedded audit solution that enables real-time access to verified financial data from Rabobank customers.
This collaboration marks an important step toward digitalization and increased efficiency in the accountancy sector. By creating direct integrations between banking data and audit platforms, financial audits become more reliable, faster, and more secure.
Addressing Key Challenges in the Sector
The accountancy industry has long faced two major issues:
- A growing shortage of skilled personnel
- Increasing pressure on audit quality
The joint solution from Rabobank and Circit tackles both challenges. By enabling real-time data access, manual work is significantly reduced, errors are minimized, and audits can be conducted more efficiently, without compromising quality.
What Makes This Partnership Unique
- Real-time financial data access: Circit allows auditors to retrieve verified data directly from Rabobank.
- Secure and independent: Circit is directly regulated under PSD2 for Open Banking, ensuring auditors can trust the independence and security of the data.
- API integration by Rabobank: Rabobank has developed an embedded service that enables access to batch transaction data directly via API, saving time and reducing risk. This embedded service is now available on Circit’s platform.
