From which sources do you obtain financial data?

In those countries where companies are legally required to file their financial statements, we normally obtain financials in the form of electronic extracts or as original documents from registry offices, government departments or banks. In other cases, we may obtain either summary or full financial figures direct form the Subject company provided they are willing to disclose such data.

In which countries can you obtain accounts from?

It can be assumed that financial data will be available on public companies in those countries where such entities are quoted on an exchange. A useful resource for countries operating a public stock exchange is available here.

In those countries which require financial filings for private companies, not all companies are necessarily required to file, and, in addition, the level of reporting (e.g., full vs. abridged, audited vs. non-audited accounts) may vary according to specific rules in force such as turnover thresholds or business type.

How much information can be be obtained on offshore companies?

By their very nature, offshore companies are set up to ensure that disclosure about the names of beneficial owners, their activities and financial performance are kept to the absolute minimum, and often not disclosed at all.

Therefore, our reporting capability for offshore companies will often be limited to whatever public record data we are legally able to obtain, though in some cases we are able to obtain additional information from other sources. Credit ratings are not possible with offshore registered companies due to the lack of pertinent data.
