Analyst-led due diligence on a business counterparty, joint venture partner, or new supplier, before you sign, invest, or extend credit.
A Companies House printout and a credit reference confirm that a business exists and files its accounts. They do not tell you whether its beneficial owners have a history of insolvency under other company names, whether it is party to undisclosed litigation, whether its stated trading relationships are genuine, or whether the people behind it have interests that conflict with yours. Entering a contract, joint venture, or credit relationship on that basis alone is a decision made with a fraction of the available picture.
A structured intelligence report on the counterparty organisation and its key individuals, covering corporate structure, beneficial ownership, litigation and insolvency history, adverse media, and significant undisclosed connections, delivered with sourced findings and a clear risk assessment.
Beneficial ownership traced through intermediate holding entities
Prior insolvencies, disqualifications and dissolved companies linked to key individuals
Litigation history, current and historical, involving the entity or its principals
Undisclosed related-party relationships and conflicts of interest
Corporate registry analysis across current and historical filings, court record searches, adverse media screening, and open-source verification of claimed trading relationships, with every finding cross-referenced against at least one independent source and verified by a named analyst before it is reported.
Yes. A credit check assesses financial standing from filed accounts. This report investigates the people and structure behind the entity, including history that would not appear on a standard company search or credit file.
Findings are documented and sourced to a standard that supports whatever decision they lead to, including walking away from a deal, and can be shared with your legal team where relevant.
No. The report is built entirely from publicly available information and lawfully obtained records, without contacting the subject or alerting them to the inquiry.
Joint venture partners, new distributors, licensing partners, major customers being extended significant credit, and any counterparty a decision is about to be made on with limited existing visibility.
Every enquiry is reviewed by an analyst and routed to a scoping call, a fixed fee is confirmed in writing before any work begins.
