Worldbox Adds More Asian Countries to Global Company Database

A recent update to Zurich, Switzerland, business intelligence provider Worldbox’s Company Information Directory added corporate records for two more countries. Worldbox is a global provider of business, due diligence and credit information that provides hard-to-find company information, particularly in developing regions.

Over 40,000 new business records from the Philippines and 80,000 records from Taiwan have been integrated into Worldbox’s global company information database. Together with their AsiaGate partners, the Credit Information Bureau Inc (CIBI) based in the Philippines and China Credit Information Services Ltd (CCIS) in Taiwan, Worldbox can now provide clients with a standard XML data structure over their API service, to deliver detailed company information from these countries.

 This permits companies to cost-effectively build a single XML mapping schema/gateway for all of their international company data requirements, saving firms needing reliable information on competitors, suppliers or buyers valuable time, the company said.

Companies are researched by Worldbox to client requirements, with structured data updates pushed to client systems over the API, allowing data to be imported into third-party enterprise software such as SAP or merged with a firm’s own internal database for comprehensive portfolio management. Integral factors like company ownership links are researched on a regular basis, and clients can specify this and other data elements to be monitored.

With more than 10 million business records offered by Worldbox, including information on group structures, ultimate company ownership and linked relationships, with reports available in English, French, German and Italian languages, the company said its services are considered by its clients to be unique, since such information is not available in many countries, today

Worldbox's global network of partners and on-the-ground agents allows it to serve clients across multiple sectors, including International Customer and Supplier Monitoring, Export Credit Risk, M&A Due Diligence, Anti-Bribery and Compliance Management. The company’s European operations are run from Switzerland, with additional bureaus in the UK, Holland and Portugal, where a quality control team totals 40 years of business research experience. The Asia region is covered by Worldbox's Hong Kong office and Indian data house, providing fast-turnaround business research.
