Use Cases

Reliable Vendor Insights for Better Risk Decisions

Reliable vendor and supplier evaluation is essential for procurement, credit assessments, and partnership decisions. Financial institutions can strengthen these processes by accessing accurate and up-to-date private company data across Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, and China. This enables evaluation of counterparties beyond publicly listed companies. Corporate registry data and financial insights allow benchmarking of vendors, assessment of operational stability, and evaluation of market credibility. Over time, monitoring supplier networks helps mitigate third-party risks such as operational disruption, fraud, or hidden ownership.
