Company reporting to the international credit industry
Based in London and Dubai, ICP produces detailed company credit status reports, using a combination of in-house research and in-country investigation by highly experienced analysts. Clients are international and include credit export insurance companies and credit agencies.
 
Due diligence, ‘KYC’ and anti fraud checks for key client sectors
ICP reports are also routinely used by public and private corporations, legal firms, consultancies, banks and national governments to conduct due diligence on partner, distributor and trading companies to check for compliance, fraud prevention, anti-money laundering and company tracing. Anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws, such as USA FCPA and UK Bribery Act, and ‘KYC’ legislation drive the need for ICP company profile information.
