Compact Credit Report (Kompaktauskunft)
The Creditreform Compact Report, known in Germany as a Kompaktauskunft, provides a concise assessment of customers and business partners for one-off transactions involving moderate credit exposure.
Review essential company details, credit risk and payment behaviour before supplying goods or services on account.
What Does A Compact Report Include?
Winning new business should go hand in hand with understanding payment risk.
The Kompaktauskunft Compact Report brings important company and credit information together in an accessible format. It provides more context than a brief credit assessment, without the depth of a full Commercial Report.
Key information includes:
• The Creditreform credit rating index and probability of default over the next 12 months.
• Core company details.
• Current business performance information.
• An assessment of payment behaviour.
Information availability varies by company and country.
When To Use A Compact Commercial Report
• Assessing one-off orders with moderate financial exposure.
• Reviewing existing customers and suppliers.
• Considering requests for longer payment terms.
• Supporting decisions about customer credit limits.
Company Credit Checks For Trade Credit Decisions
Supplying on account creates a gap between paying your own costs and receiving payment from the customer.
A Kompaktauskunft Compact Report helps you assess that exposure before accepting an order. Review its findings alongside the transaction value, your trading history and your credit policy to decide whether the proposed terms are appropriate.
