Features & Benefits

• Understand business credit scores

  Know more about who you are doing business with, including ownership, business credit scores and payment histories to extend and maintain the right amount of credit. With more than 455 million business entities covered across 220+ markets globally, you can quickly deliver your team the right insights to improve credit management processes.

• Automate credit decisions

  Use global business credit scores information, country insight reports, your own business rules and predictive analytics to issue instant credit decisions and standardise credit review processes. Anchored by the Dun & Bradstreet D-U-N-S Number, alongside the Dun & Bradstreet Data Cloud, D&B Finance Analytics helps your team to quickly see the right information to make decisions faster. Integrate D&B Finance Analytics with existing software solutions, like Salesforce and Oracle, with the ability to adapt your alerts, policies and rules as your needs change.

• Proactively manage risk

  Using proprietary predictive and performance-based credit scores, like Overall Business Risk Assessment and the Maximum Credit Recommendation, you can set better terms and limits. This combines using your own business risk settings with third-party web and social information, including the latest news, social media posts and management changes, to adjust credit management decisions in real-time. You can also draw on Dun & Bradstreet Data Cloud information to gain insights into how quickly a company is likely to pay based on past patterns, as well as view past and present legal activities that may impact a company’s financial stability.

• Deep financial information – for public AND private companies

  Dun & Bradstreet provides  insights on more than 455 million business entities, spanning publicly traded and privately owned companies, multi-national corporations and small businesses with less than 10 employees, worldwide.

  This includes rich ownership information, corporate linkages, and insights on executives and principals. You can also use in-depth Country Insight reports to understand risks and opportunities in a regional and global context.

  Finance Analytics also includes predictive risk scores for small to medium businesses, drawing on Commercial Credit Data Sharing information and our own proprietary data.
