Dun & Bradstreet
(NYSE:DNB), the world's
leading source of global
business information,
knowledge and insight, is present in over 200 countries
with a global commercial database containing more than
220+ million business records.

What is
Trade Payment
Data
Trade Payments data contains details of a company's
vendor/ supplier payments. The details include the credit
terms given to a company by its vendors/ suppliers
from various industries, and the customer's payment
behavior, i.e. timely/ delayed payments/ defaults, etc.
Trade Payments Data or a company's
vendor payment behavior is a highly
effective indicator of a company's financial
strength and management attitude.
Globally it has been observed that 90%
of bankrupt companies exhibited delayed,
fluctuating or below industry average
vendor payment patterns.
Without knowing how your customer's
payment behavior with his other vendors or
suppliers, you will not know if a customer
is using your payments for financing
his working capital needs. This affects
your cash flow adversely, in turn affecting
your operational efficiency. You also lose
valuable money in interest losses
on delayed payments, longer sales to
revenue realization cycles, increased DSOs
and even bad debts in some cases.
Thus knowledge of your customer's trade
payments is crucial for:

Protecting your revenue

Avoiding bad debts

Improving your DSO and cash flows

Improving your operational
efficiency

The Trade Exchange Program is a 'shared information network' that gives you 24 hours online
and instant access to vendor payments information of your current and prospective customers.

As part of D&B's Trade Exchange Program, we collect trade payment experiences (receivables
information) from industry players (called Trade Partners), combine them with information
from a wealth of D&B proprietary data sources to complete the image of a business' stability past, present and future.

In return for this data, the Trade Partner receives
free of charge data
that focuses on reducing Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and risk.
