rerb.org - counterparty due diligence: financials, owners and court cases

Website: https://rerb.org

Type of work: Design development, layout, web service development

Development of a unique design and of a web service for checking counterparties. The site aggregates data from public state registries only - the tax registry, the Polish National Court Register (KRS), the statistics office and annual accounting filings - and assembles a company profile in seconds.

Search by company name, tax ID or registry number, a catalogue of companies by cities and regions, registration details, directors and beneficial owners, activities, headcount, financial indicators and litigation history. The interface works in three languages (PL, RU, EN); the service also has a blog and a legal section.

People come to a counterparty check with one concrete question - can this company be trusted with a contract or a payment - so the first screen is a single search box that accepts a name, a tax ID or a registry number. The company profile that opens next goes from the most requested data to the least: registration details and status, then owners and directors, then financial indicators by year and finally court cases.

Each block names its source, whether the tax registry, the KRS, the statistics office or accounting filings, so the user can see where a figure comes from and quote it in their own documents. Catalogues of companies by city and region and the lists of recently added cities and regions help search engines index the profiles.

The interface works in Polish, Russian and English, and the blog explains how to read the financial statements and registry entries shown in the profiles.
