Automatic screening of business partners

A tool for assessing the risk associated with cooperation with business partners

How does Intelligent Risk Monitoring work?

Intelligent Risk Monitoring is an original tool that performs dozens of tests to allow you to immediately screen large volumes of business partners and identify financial, tax, legal, and fraud risks. 

The tool automatically collects and analyzes large amounts of data, including information from business registers, as well as financial and tax data. The next step involves performing a series of tests to assess the risk associated with each of the entities being screened.

Legally required due diligence

Businesses are legally required to exercise due care in screening their business partners. At the moment, the Polish Ministry of Finance sets out business partner screening criteria, but the list is not exhaustive.

Importantly, screening business partners is a natural process for businesses that want to start or continue collaboration with business partners. Its aim is to shield businesses from various risks such as:

Intelligent Risk Monitoring supports ESG goals
