Additional Information for Important Credit Decisions

Dun & Bradstreet is one of the most recognized providers of commercial business information and business credit reports. NACM South Atlantic members may order individual D&B Business Information Reports when additional information is needed for a credit decision.

A D&B report can be particularly useful when evaluating a new customer, reviewing a significant credit exposure, researching an unfamiliar company, or supplementing information already available from other commercial credit sources.

What Can a D&B Business Credit Report Tell You?

Available information varies by company and report, but a Dun & Bradstreet Business Information Report may provide valuable insight into several important areas.

01

Business Identification

Review identifying information about the business, its operations, industry, and corporate background.

02

Credit Scores & Ratings

Evaluate available D&B credit scores and ratings designed to help assess commercial credit risk.

03

Payment History

Review reported trade payment experiences and payment patterns that may help identify how a company manages its obligations.

04

Credit Capacity

Gain additional perspective on potential credit exposure using available ratings, payment activity, and credit recommendation information.

05

Financial Information

When available, financial information can provide additional insight into the size and financial condition of a business.

06

Public Information

Reports may contain available public filing and other business information relevant to evaluating commercial risk.

When Should You Consider a D&B Report?

New Customer Review

Gather additional information before establishing an open account or credit limit.

Large Credit Exposure

Supplement your existing credit file when a customer requests a substantial credit line.

Periodic Account Review

Reevaluate an existing customer when circumstances, exposure, or payment behavior change.

Additional Due Diligence

Use another independent source of commercial information when a decision requires a broader view.

Use the Right Credit Report for the Right Decision

No single commercial credit report is necessarily the best source for every credit decision. NACM South Atlantic gives credit professionals access to multiple reporting options, allowing you to select the information source that best fits the customer and the level of risk involved.

Many NACM members use the NACM National Trade Credit Report as their primary source of current trade payment information, while requesting an Experian or Dun & Bradstreet report when additional research is appropriate.
