Suppliers


Our suppliers are an integral part of our business. They enable us to support our colleagues and clients by providing innovative and effective solutions across a wide range of categories.

We focus on building long-lasting relationships both with our clients and our suppliers. We look to partner with organisations who share our values and commitment to those principles.

We are committed to acting in a fair, transparent way at all times, both when we go to market to source goods and services, and throughout the lifespan of our supplier relationships. We are committed to the communities in which we operate and often use local suppliers to support our offices and client events.

As an FCA-regulated company, we have a robust framework for due diligence and ongoing vendor management that we need new and existing suppliers to comply with.

We are proactive buyers in the markets we purchase from, and our leaders across the business keep abreast of supplier-led innovation in their areas. With that in mind, when we wish to procure new goods or services, we will go out to market. Therefore, unsolicited marketing directed to us is unlikely to be successful.

RBC Brewin Dolphin’s commitment to prompt payment

We are committed to prompt payment of valid invoices and you can see how well we have performed on this metric here. We have chosen Coupa as the purchase to pay system that will help us maintain a timely and efficient process from raising a purchase order to settlement of invoices.

We need our suppliers to partner with us in the use of Coupa to achieve the best possible payment experience.

This guide provides more information including how to register on the Coupa Supplier Portal (existing suppliers only).
