Commanding Compliance: Be Informed’s Ascendancy in Regulatory Intelligence and Agile Automation

In an era where regulations evolve faster than enterprises can react, Be Informed emerges not as a solution but as a transformation partner. With a reputation for precision and trust earned over two decades, this Netherlands-based RegTech pioneer orchestrates organizational agility for industries burdened with regulatory complexity. The mission is profound—translating intricate laws, policies, and mandates into seamless, scalable, and fully compliant daily operations. Founded in 2006 and with a presence in over 15 countries, Be Informed has spent nearly twenty years engineering clarity from chaos. Their pioneering platform empowers organizations to interpret complex regulations, model compliance processes, and enforce operations across domains as diverse as finance, public sector, trade and transport, and human resources. By merging rule-based logic, machine-readable frameworks, and end-to-end automation, the company redefines how regulatory technology is leveraged globally. Led by Chief Executive Officer Hugo Ehrnreich, Be Informed has become synonymous with intelligent compliance automation. Its platform—divided into the Workbench, Studios, and Runtime—brings unmatched transparency and traceability to organizations operating in highly regulated environments. As businesses worldwide seek digital dexterity without sacrificing control, Be Informed stands out by ensuring every regulatory nuance is not only respected—but reimagined.

The RegTech Renaissance: Empowering the Enterprise

In today’s digitized economy, regulations are not just bureaucratic burdens—they are strategic determinants. What sets Be Informed apart is its philosophy that compliance is not a checkpoint, but a competitive advantage. Its platform does more than digitize compliance; it operationalizes trust. Through Be Informed Workbench, regulations are meticulously interpreted and translated into machine-readable formats, anchoring every operational decision in verifiable legal origin. This traceability is not just about recordkeeping; it's about strategic foresight. With Be Informed Studios, organizations can then model these regulations into bespoke rule-based services that echo real-world scenarios. It’s a no-code environment where domain experts—not just developers—define business logic, ensuring the system mirrors regulatory intent with fidelity. Finally, Be Informed Runtime orchestrates these models into dynamic, adaptive systems that not only monitor compliance but enforce it across the lifecycle of a transaction, process, or engagement. From local governance to global financial institutions, the promise is the same: smarter, faster, and faultless compliance.

Partnering for Progress: Collaboration at the Core

Be informed is not just a vendor—it’s a collaborator in systemic change. It proudly partners with global leaders like Blyce, TNO, KnowIT, YRCI, and Mphasis. Each partnership reflects a shared vision: co-creating domain-specific solutions that are both robust and elegant. Whether helping government agencies navigate dual-use goods regulation or enabling financial institutions to future-proof against shifting compliance landscapes, Be Informed amplifies its clients’ impact with tailored automation. And with the platform’s open standards architecture, integration with existing systems becomes an evolution—not an overhaul. This emphasis on collaboration extends internally as well. Be Informed fosters a culture defined by openness, continuous learning, and innovation. Their team spans continents but moves with cohesion, united by a common goal: making regulatory change not just manageable—but meaningful.

Shaping the Future: Where Innovation Meets Governance

Few companies have not only weathered the storm of constant regulatory upheaval but have capitalized on it. Be Informed’s story is not just one of resilience—it’s of redefinition. Its technology is trusted by institutions that cannot afford error, delay, or ambiguity. With an eye on the future, the company is now investing in AI-enabled norm engineering, a frontier where artificial intelligence intersects with policy formation. In the evolving narrative of RegTech, Be Informed is both author and architect. And beyond software, the company commits to thought leadership, offering insights through webinars, whitepapers, and expert blogs. Whether demystifying exports controls or exploring regulatory implications of new technologies, Be Informed ensures that clients aren’t just compliant—they’re informed.

Industry-Specific Impact: Precision with Purpose

While the platform is modular, its application is sharply verticalized. In the public sector, Be Informed enables governments to execute complex regulations without overburdening bureaucracies. In trade and transport, it provides the digital backbone for compliance in cross-border transactions. For financial services, it translates volatile legal frameworks into steady-state operations. In human resources, it ensures employee policies align with evolving labor law landscapes. This vertical specialization does not dilute scalability. Rather, it enhances adaptability, allowing the same platform to power a customs authority in Europe and a healthcare regulation agency in Asia with equal precision.

The Reputation Factor: Why Be Informed Ranks High in 2025

In the 2025 edition of “20 Most Reputable Companies of the Year,” Be Informed earns its place by not merely doing business—but elevating it. With a spotless delivery record, visionary leadership, and unwavering client focus, it stands as a gold standard in RegTech reliability. In a field often viewed as reactive, Be Informed operates proactively—delivering a platform that doesn't just follow regulations but anticipates them. At a time when organizations seek partners who offer more than code—who offer counsel, consistency, and control—Be Informed delivers all three in abundance.
