A simple quick check online can save hours of chasing payments and ensure you have a good idea as to the state of your clients finances.

The ratings give you an indication of the credit worthiness of a business based on a number of factors, and some complex number crunching behind the scenes. They are a guide you can use when looking at a company report and trying to agree a recommended limit with your client.
