Our reports are in standardized formats to accommodate regional variations in filing regulations and accountancy practices so you can search and compare company information across borders.
With Orbis’s standardized formats, you can search for information on companies across regions and countries—using the same criteria. Possible search criteria you can use include actual financials, growth rates, and estimates. Also, Orbis lets you use a single activity code when you search globally, because we’ve mapped international and local industry codes.
We are masters of corporate ownership and the go-to resource for beneficial ownership. Our data includes 1.9bn ownership links, 1.7bn historic ownership links, and 218m active ownership links.
Our corporate trees reveal the ownership of your potential and existing business partners and third-party associates, including the beneficial owners. You can also review their corporate group as a whole and screen it for adverse news as well as PEPs and sanctions with additional modules in our solution suite.
Identifying companies that are sanctioned is one challenge. But how do you identify companies that are sanctioned because they are remotely linked to sanctioned companies or individuals?
We call these companies "sanctioned by extension". They’re not on any sanctions list, but you could still be fined for trading with them in certain jurisdictions. It’s a big challenge. So how do you identify them, continue to monitor the situation, and avoid breaching regulations?
Use Orbis’s financial models to work with our standardized company reports, to gain transparent, independent views and predictive indicators of a company’s financial strength. With these financial strength metrics, you’ll be able to assess companies more quickly and with greater certainty. They’ll also help you benchmark your own models.
Additionally, Orbis offers you access to modelled projected financials for predictive analyses.
Boost your ability to assess companies’ financial strength, where financial information is not available, with Orbis’s qualitative scores. Qualitative scores are based on non-financial information, including:
The size and strength of shareholding companies and subsidiaries
A company’s management and number of directors
A company’s experience and structure, such as years in business, number of employees, and capital and legal form
To make sure that Orbis’s data is as comprehensive, wide-ranging, and as detailed as possible, we collect data from more than 170 providers, as well as hundreds of our own sources, around the world.
And, after carefully capturing this wide variety of information, we treat, append, and standardize it to make it richer, more powerful, and easier for you to interrogate.
Our approach includes:
Linking data sources
Standardizing financials
Cross referencing industry codes
Applying standardized classifications, terms, and names
Offering comparable, reactive financial strength metrics
Applying quality control and data governance
Whether you prefer to pull data yourself, via our Orbis web interface, through our Catalysts, APIs or industry connectors, or prefer to have it pushed to your existing infrastructure via our bulk feed, cloud, or real-time delivery, we have many ways to connect. We also deliver data through our extensive global partnership network.
Even though varying legal filing obligations make it a challenge to capture private company information, more than 99% of the companies Orbis covers are private. We are committed to capturing, treating, and delivering the highest quality private company information available. In cases where full financial information is not available, Orbis still provides a financial strength indicator.

Orbis sees more, so you know more
Robust information on M&A deals, including deal value, transaction details, parties involved, and the rationale behind the transactions, can enrich your master data beyond that typical starting point, and help you to maintain a more complete, trusted ‘golden record'.
With the frequency and financial cost of cyber-attacks rising, is your organization set up to address cyber risk?
P&C insurers are increasingly recognizing the importance of corporate sustainability and the role that environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors can play when identifying and managing risk to make more informed decisions.
Data decay is the gradual deterioration of data quality over time. Failing to update data regularly can have significant consequences for businesses, including targeting the wrong contacts, making decisions based on outdated information, and exposing the organization to unnecessary risks.
Data governance plays a crucial role in master data management (MDM) as it ensures the accuracy, consistency, integrity, and security of an organization's master data.
