D&B Rating

Quick and clear insight in the failure risk of a company

Predicting a company´s prospects for success or failure can be seen at a glance using D&B´s business risk evaluations, as they are based on a breadth and depth of up to date information.

The D&B Rating turns a mass of disparate information into a shorthand guide of how a business is performing.

Derived from the D&B Failure Score, the D&B Rating reflects a company´s financial strength and the likelihood of it failing or succeeding.

For many years now, the D&B Rating has been recognised as a leading predictive indicator for assessing company risk and business failure. This unique ability of the D&B Rating provides you with early warning signs of potential cash flow problems and gives you ample opportunity to modify your trading terms and conditions, to prevent significant financial losses.

The D&B Rating is available in both domestic and European reports.

The financial strengrh in other words, the net worth indicates the financial size of the business. We classify the businesses regarding their financial strength, based on a net worth calculation to the categories detailed int he table:
