When researching a company for a potential merger, acquisition, partnership, investment, risk assessment, or other corporate third-party monitoring tasks, knowing connected companies and people is essential. Typically, this involves purchasing business profile reports, and building a picture of these relationships by hand. Connections+ automates this time-consuming task.

Connections+ Radial and Interconnection Maps lets you graphically investigate the connections between companies and people with up to three degrees of separation. The map can be fully customised and exported as a PDF, and is an essential “know your customer” (KYC) tool.

Connections+ Reports give detailed information on a specific company (or person). Report types include…

• Entity Profile Report: Gives detailed background information on a company, equivalent to the corporate registry’s business profile report.
• RED List Report (“Regulatory enforcement and disciplinary”): Details any involvement in a regulatory body investigation, covering 21 regulators in Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong, with up to 20 years of history.
• Legal Beneficial Ownership: Reveals a company’s ultimate owner, and allows filtering by “effective equity interest” (effective shareholding), entity types etc.
• Investee Companies: Shows all the stock holdings a company or person has.

With Connections+, we aim to make your corporate monitoring, risk detection and research more efficient, and ultimately to help you make better informed business decisions.
