Search & identify companies
Find legal entities by name, VAT number or registration number, with country-aware search and normalised identifiers. Each company is shown in a consistent profile, so results are comparable across covered jurisdictions.
THE PROBLEM
Company information in Europe is scattered across national registers, languages and data formats. Manual checks are slow, hard to document and difficult to scale across countries. K-Check standardises this information and keeps it organised, so teams can work with company data, risk indicators and monitoring in a structured way.
Find legal entities by name, VAT number or registration number, with country-aware search and normalised identifiers. Each company is shown in a consistent profile, so results are comparable across covered jurisdictions.
Combine identity, financial signals, legal events and ownership information to understand the risk profile of customers, suppliers or other counterparties. Use this as input for your internal scoring models and policies.
Set up monitoring rules for status changes, filings, insolvency events or other negative signals where data is available. Receive alerts in the interface or via API and keep an auditable trail of checks and follow-up actions.
PLATFORM CAPABILITIES
K-Check is organised in modules that focus on specific aspects of company information and risk. Each module can be used on its own, or combined with others for a deeper view across the company lifecycle.
Get a structured company profile with legal name, identifiers, registration data, status, address, sector classification and basic contact information where available. Profiles are normalised across countries, with clear references to the original official sources.
Access selected financial data and public risk indicators to support your own credit and risk assessments. Metrics are presented in a standardised way so that companies from different jurisdictions can be analysed on the same basis, where data is available.
Configure monitoring rules for companies of interest. K-Check tracks selected changes in official data sources and notifies you when relevant events occur, helping you keep ongoing files, portfolios or counterparties up to date.
Where data is provided by official registers, K-Check reconstructs shareholder and ownership chains into an interpretable view of control and beneficial ownership. This supports investigations into group structures, concentration of control and regulatory obligations around UBO analysis.
Support KYB and AML workflows by screening companies and key associated persons against applicable PEP and sanctions lists, where these can be accessed or integrated. Matching logic is designed to balance sensitivity and precision, and results can be exported for internal review and documentation.
For jurisdictions where data is exposed, K-Check surfaces selected information on court cases, insolvency and similar negative events linked to companies. This provides additional context for risk assessment and monitoring.
WHO IT’S FOR
The same underlying data can support several functions across an organisation. K-Check helps different teams work from a shared picture of counterparties, while keeping their own workflows and policies.
Run Know Your Business checks on new and existing counterparties, using official company data, ownership where available and negative information. Store structured outputs and documentation to support audit, reviews and regulatory expectations.
Support credit decisions and collections by combining company profiles, risk indicators and monitoring. Track important changes in status or negative events in your portfolios, and use the data as input for internal limit, scoring or exposure models.
Verify suppliers, partners and other third parties before onboarding and over time. Use K-Check to confirm identity, sector, ownership context and potential negative signals, especially when working across multiple countries.
DATA FOUNDATION
K-Check focuses on official and clearly documented sources, such as national business registers, tax authorities and selected court or insolvency publications. Coverage is expanded progressively, country by country, and is documented transparently.
Marketplace & debt recovery
Some organisations need more than company information when dealing with overdue receivables. On top of the same company data foundation, K-Check can provide optional tools that connect portfolios, claims and recovery professionals.
Access a structured directory of debt recovery professionals and firms, organised by country and areas of specialisation. Use it to identify potential partners for local or cross-border cases.
For clients that choose to use it, K-Check can support listing of receivables in a controlled environment, with clear company references and status information. Listing options and commercial conditions are subject to separate terms.
These modules are optional and operate on top of the same company data foundation.
WORKFLOW
Start from the general search form, using name, VAT, registration number or other identifiers. Narrow down the results by country and status, then open the profile you need.
View a normalised company profile, then look at available risk indicators, ownership context and negative signals. Use this as part of your internal onboarding, review or decision process.
For companies that are important to your organisation, configure monitoring rules and alerts. K-Check will notify you when selected changes occur, so you can update files and decisions in a timely manner.
Create an account to explore company profiles, risk indicators and monitoring options across covered European jurisdictions. When you are ready, you can connect the same data to your own tools and workflows via API.
