Case Study: Swedbank achieves faster analysis and collaborative decision-making with Tableau Software

Swedbank - Customer Case Study

Swedbank, the leading bank across Sweden, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania with operations in multiple countries, faced the challenge of slow, slide-driven analysis and fragmented BI environments. Wade Stokes, a senior analyst, had been creating complex panel charts in Excel and needed faster, more interactive ways to link and blend data from different sources across geographies, but adoption was limited and data warehouses and BI platforms varied by region.

Wade adopted Tableau as a fast, intuitive way to build interactive visualizations that turn presentations into conversations, enabling on-the-fly linking of Excel files and other sources. The solution sped up delivery, improved collaborative problem solving, exposed critical insights (for example, revealing a fund’s top ranking was driven by a single bet and a compliance issue), and sparked grassroots analyst adoption—initially about eight users—with growing momentum toward wider rollout.
