Why Choose Ethica as Your Credit Solutions Partner?

As your business expands, so do the risks and complexities of offering credit in a fluctuating marketplace. Ensuring your company takes a proactive approach to awarding credit enables you to choose your business partners strategically. Ethica’s Credit Investigation Reports provide customers with critical real-time credit information to help you make informed decisions.

Our investigation department will process your credit applications for Real-Time Live-Data information with one hour after reception. We initiate direct contact with banks, trades, legal, and public court records. All information captured during the course of our investigation must be in Real-Time. No data is gathered from archived material.

In addition, our alliance with D&B enables our customers to access the most comprehensive in-file credit reports in the world and to complement these with live data.

Information provided by Ethica has a one-time-use purpose and is in no way archived for resale or reuse under any conditions. We comply with PEPIDA and all other information and privacy acts at the federal, provincial or state level.

   • At what level should I assign their credit limit?
   • Can they pay on time?
   •

Do they have a credit margin and flexibility with their financial institution?
