Are you concerned about the financial position of your key suppliers or contractors in these uncertain economic times? Corporate Scorecard is widely recognized as the most cost effective, dependable service of its type for evaluating financial viability of companies in Australia. Corporate Scorecard also holds an ASIC license as an Australian Credit Rating Agency( AFS 341391).

Corporate Scorecard specializes in assessing the financial viability and capacity of counterparties to honour specified contractual commitments. There are varying report options depending on the nature of the engagement and the desired level of scrutiny, and are typically influenced by the contract size, duration, warranty, criticality, complexity, structure and overall risk profile.

Whether you are looking for a Comprehensive Credit Rating which provides an independent expert opinion and is typically used to assess commercially significant, strategically important, or longer-term engagements where the consequence of contractual default is deemed to be critical or you require an initial guide and score to measure the financial capacity of an entity for a specific contract value where it is a shorter-term contract or where the consequence of the contractual default is lower, Corporate Scorecard has the capacity and capability to provide the due diligence required.
