 Russia joins D&B Global Trade Exchange Program
In November 2010, D&B announced the launch of a Trade Exchange Program in Russia, a payment monitoring system that will give companies insight on their commercial credit portfolios.
The roll out of the Russian Trade Exchange Program is an extension of the D&B Global Trade Exchange Program, where we collect trade, or accounts receivable data, from our customers. This data is a critical input into our DUNSRight® Quality Process and is a key component of our predictive indicators.
Trade in Russia will help drive our ‘Unassailable Data’ strategy – to have 100% complete linked identity coverage of the known global B2B market, each containing 1+ piece of trade. Our 2011 goal is to collect 500K business records with more than 1 unique trade references in Russia. While this goal is ambitious, the team is working vigilantly and we believe it is achievable. »»»
