Change, adapt, improve
The pace of business is faster than ever, forcing organisations to constantly optimise processes in order to remain
competitive. But continual improvement is only possible if your infrastructure gives you the flexibility to change. DNBi adapts readily to suit your evolving business needs. However you work, DNBi works with you.
Customise for effectiveness
Too much information is as bad as having too little. A truly efficient credit management system gives credit professionals the intelligence they need when they need it. With a
customisable interface to reflect the specific tasks, requirements and authorisations of each individual, DNBi provides a shared workspace so that a department’s roles, workflows and processes can be managed more effectively. Combined with real-time data and an audit trail that can document every decision, it breaks the mould and provides the most usable work experience of any credit management system. Pure, focused effectiveness.
No more limits
Do your people spend time sourcing information or dealing with it? Are they using reports? Do they have the freedom to be efficient, or is your system holding them back? DNBi is always live, giving you instant transparency across your company’s entire credit risk portfolio. It is a single, complete, one-price, one-stop solution that frees you from the
inefficiencies of ad-hoc report generation, and gives every credit professional the tools needed to reach new levels of effectiveness.
DNBi lets you:
Identify your risk online in an instant
Understand exposure across your
entire portfolio
Make timely, informed decisions
using live data
Track significant changes and

With online access to information on more than 170 million businesses in the D&B Global Database, DNBi gives you and your team the power to control credit risk company-wide. At-a-glance dashboards, clear reports and an intuitive web-based format mean getting the portfolio-wide view you need has never been easier. Armed with this information, you can both minimise your risk and maximise youropportunities.
Flexibility that puts you in control
Manage risk in a way that suits you. Customise and control the way your management teams can access and use DNBi business data. Create structured workspaces to monitor account portfolios efficiently.

It lets you under-stand credit exposure across your entire portfolio – not just new or problem accounts, but potentially less obvious risks from established customers too.

You also have the added reassurance of knowing that every decision you make is backed by D&B’s DUNSRightTM quality

look at risk.
Identifying your risks
Evaluating risk and deciding appropriate credit terms has never been more important. In today’s challenging climate, business circumstances quickly change. A view taken one week may be wholly inappropriate the next. To make informed decisions, you need up-to-date information. You need the ability to reassess changes at any moment in time. It’s not just prospective, recent or even problematic accounts you need to watch. Even your most established customers can suddenly and unexpectedly constitute a serious risk.
You need a way to assess risk across your whole portfolio, constantly, using the very latest intelligence. DNBi delivers this capability in a web-based format that is easy to set up and easy to run.
Conf dence
n your decisions
Three reasons for DNBi to be
part of your business, every day
The DNBi Dashboard gives you the immediate summary you need to make business-critical decisions. Drawn from the verified D&B credit database, the Dashboard is an overview of your risk portfolio at your fingertips. Use it to spot trends, assess risk, refine credit limits, and drive company profitability. Customise the layout to highlight information that is most
important to you and to show the true risk in your portfolio. Segment your portfolio and configure alerts proactively, to
inform you of key changes in risk.
Document your decisions by saving a snapshot (a record of the data on which the decision is based) along with your notes. Snapshots are saved indefinitely in your DNBi account. Supplement corporate credit risk information with
consumer credit information which you can apply to your own credit policy.
Global Failure Risk Bands (GFRBs) allow a direct comparison of the risk of failure between different companies located in different countries around the world. If you are managing an international portfolio of customers, the GFRBs allow you to easily segment your portfolio and efficiently focus your resource and effort.
Instant access to the most complete and up-to-date business information available – enabling you to assess risk consistently and gain intelligence internationally. This ensures that you have what you need to make a confident decision.
Use the DNBi Company Summary, a customisable view of key company information that enables fast, informed decision-making.
