Your early warning detection system for problem accounts

D&B Severe Risk acts as a customers' "insurance" against the most critical situations that can impact a business. D&B's Severe Risk Services analysts are trained and experienced in identifying those companies that could present significant risk. A D&B analyst calls, faxes or e-mails the customer when business activity on a registered account is within one of the following categories:

• "High Risk" - company displays characteristics of fraud, has misrepresented data to D&B or has undergone an indictment.
• "Business Deterioration" - showing signs of financial distress, such as existing or imminent business failure or operating difficulty.
• "Bankruptcy" - has filed for, or has a bankruptcy petition filed against it.
• "Information Alert" - occurrences that may have a significant impact on business.
