Leading-edge technology, guided by human intelligence
Source data is loaded into our proprietary entity database.
It then goes through an extensive and rigorous curation process to clean, standardise and map legal entities to relevant corporate structures and individuals within our database.
Data is linked back to primary sources by our system, to provide an audit trail and the ability to show exactly how entity data has been sourced and changed.
Only official sources
We use only primary, authoritative sources from which we capture external content.
In this way we ensure accuracy and compliance with generally accepted global standards for sourcing information required for due-diligence processes. These sources include:
- Corporate Registers
- Official Gazettes
- Compliance Documents
- Securities & Exchange Commissions
- Federal and Local Courts
- Professional Bodies (inc. Chambers of Commerce)
- Investment Authorities
- Special Economic Zones
- Land Registries
- Regulators
Extensive networks
Diligencia's highly trained team of country analysts have developed an in depth understanding of the peoples, cultures and languages of the 70 countries that we cover.
Drawn from 14 nationalities, our analysts hold formal experience ranging from PhDs and Masters degrees to journalism and legal qualifications. Combined with fluency in multiple languages and experience of living in many of the countries we cover, the team is well versed in researching and resolving a range of business intelligence issues.
Our analysts maintain extensive networks of in-country sources that can provide insights into an organisation, person or issue of interest. Depending on the matter in hand, these sources can range from officials within authoritative bodies and local lawyers through to journalists and industry experts. We will typically speak to multiple sources to ensure that all findings are corroborated.
