Checklist: Business Credit Profiles

More

Information that goes into creating a business's credit profile comes from a variety of primary and secondary sources. Make sure that your information is all current and correct in order to get financing. Make sure that you focus on the following:

  • Payment and banking data from company suppliers
  • Lawsuits
  • Liens and judgments
  • Uniform Commercial Code filings
  • Business Registrations
  • Incorporations
  • Bankruptcy filings from state and county courtrooms
  • Corporate financial reports
  • Contracts, grants, loans, and debarments from the federal government
  • Web mining
  • News and media
  • Yellow Pages and other print directories
  • In some cases, direct investigations and interviews with company principals (i.e. self-reported data) and other companies that you work with.
