Creditinfo Launches New Global Fraud & ID Solution
Creditinfo’s new solution supports clients in mitigating the impact of fraud and supporting organisational growth.
London – 27th March 2025: Creditinfo, a global service provider for credit information and risk management solutions, has today announced the launch of its global identity, know your customer (KYC), and fraud and ID solution, set to help organisations tackle financial crime.
The overall global economic impact of financial crime has been estimated to be $5 trillion. What’s more, according to the 2024 Nasdaq global financial crime report, fraud losses totalled $485.6 billion worldwide, from fraud scams and bank fraud schemes alone. As such, organisations face a series of challenges, from eroding profit margins to reputational risks to data breaches. Creditinfo’s solution helps organisations to address these challenges by using credit bureau data, government information services, and other registries to establish trust in presented identities, without negatively impacting the customer experience.
The solution integrates identity proofing, digital risk signals and comprehensive international and domestic watchlists to deliver strong KYC compliance and reduce the risk of fraudulent activity. It also enables businesses to streamline risk management and ensures they meet stringent customer due diligence requirements under anti-money laundering (AML) regulations.
As a global solution, it is tailored to meet the unique needs and maturity-levels of different markets. By accounting for these differences, organisations that use the solution can adapt their fraud prevention strategies to specific local risks, strengthening security and promoting financial inclusion.
Creditinfo has appointed Rob Meakin as Director of Fraud & Identity to head up this service. He brings extensive experience in fraud prevention, identity management, and financial services. Meakin will lead efforts to help organisations counter fraud – leveraging advanced technologies and data analytics to enhance the customer experience and strengthen fraud and AML controls.
Rob Meakin, Director of Fraud and Identity at Creditinfo, said: “The growing presence of organised financial crime is significantly hindering economic growth on both a local and global scale, costing businesses huge sums of money each year – in fraud losses, lost sales and operational costs. That’s why, at Creditinfo, we’re pioneering a solution that provides a way for organisations to manage risk and maintain compliance while facilitating secure and easy access to financial products and services for consumers.”
John Cannon, Chief Commercial Officer at Creditinfo said: “By removing friction from both traditional and digital onboarding and origination processes, our solution helps organisations reduce fraud, improve conversion rates, and drive top-line growth while ensuring a seamless customer journey. As we strive to expand our global reach and enhance financial access for millions of consumers and businesses worldwide, having Rob join our team is an invaluable advantage, strengthening both our security capabilities and our ability to deliver innovative solutions.”

PRESS RELEASE
03 December 2024 – Creditinfo, a global credit bureau and information services group, and Esgrid, a value chain sustainability platform, have joined forces to create ESG Hub, a centralised ESG data registry for the Baltic region. This one-of-a-kind platform is designed to simplify how businesses collect, analyse, and share Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) data—bridging the gap between rising sustainability demands and the practical challenges companies face in meeting them.
At present, ESG data remains fragmented, with no unified standard in place, complicating efforts for businesses and financial institutions alike. ESG Hub will address this gap by providing a comprehensive, single-source platform that combines quantitative and qualitative ESG insights. This will empower financiers and investors to make more transparent decisions while considering the environmental, social, and governance impacts of the companies they engage with.
Creditinfo will contribute its robust data collection capabilities by aggregating information from public and private registries, while Esgrid will work closely with businesses to capture and verify missing ESG data. Together, the partnership promises a reliable, end-to-end solution for ESG visibility and compliance.
Nele Roostalu, Product Development Manager at Creditinfo, highlighted the timeliness of the initiative:
“Integrating ESG metrics into the Baltic market is an essential step forward. By combining our expertise in trusted data management with ESG-focused solutions, we’re equipping businesses and financial institutions to operate more responsibly and transition to sustainable business models.”
Elari Tammenurm, Managing Director of Creditinfo Estonia, added:
“For over 30 years, we’ve empowered companies to make smarter business decisions. ESG data represents the next leap, enabling actionable solutions to promote sustainability.”
Oksana Tolmatshova, Co-Founder and CEO of Esgrid, emphasised the practical value of the new platform:
“Access to ESG data is critical for sustainable financing and procurement. Our collaboration with Creditinfo delivers a solution that significantly reduces bureaucracy and enhances companies’ competitiveness on both regional and international levels.”
ESG Hub is already in development, with the first phase set to roll out by the end of Q1 2025. This will include tools to help Baltic companies organise and share their ESG data while positioning themselves as sustainability leaders in their industries.

Can Expanding the Role of CRBs Through Trade Data Sharing Enhance Business Credit and Improve Cash Flow Management?
There is a growing need to expand the information shared with Credit Reference Bureaus ( CRBs) to include trade data. Many manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers have reported cash flow challenges due to difficulties in recovering debts from their customers. This often results in their ability to restock or pay suppliers, further straining their operations. In Kenya, trade agreements frequently rely on informal arrangements, with limited legal recourse due to delays in the judicial systems. Could CRBs play a more significant role in addressing these issues?
As businesses increasingly rely on data to drive decision-making, it’s evident that CRBs, which currently hold financial data related primarily to bank and mobile loans, could greatly enhance their scope. While the inclusion of traditional credit data has boosted financial inclusion, expanding this to cover trade credit information especially from manufacturers, service providers, and wholesalers could revolutionise how businesses extend and manage credit.
If this trade data were collected and shared under a regulatory framework, it could enhance credit trading, improve business relationships, and further financial inclusion. Regular purchasing and payment data, when synthesized, could help businesses evaluate potential customers, set credit limits, and make informed decisions beyond traditional borrowing data.
Accounts receivable teams often struggle to recover overdue debts from customers extended credit without proper risk assessment. Introducing legislation to compel specific entities to share trade data based on factors like turnover or invoice value could help manage risk, reduce legal disputes, and cut down on costs associated with unpaid receivables.
Moreover, the Kenya Revenue Authority could benefit from improved tax collection, as greater financial discipline would be encouraged to avoid negative CRB listings, which can impact a company’s ability to do business. This would also help reduce the burden on the Judiciary, where countless civil cases related to unpaid debts remain unresolved, leading to significant business losses.
Properly managing and sharing trade credit information could streamline the business environment, improving cash flow and financial planning. Additionally, incorporating trade credit data into CRB decision making tools could help boost an individual’s or entity’s creditworthiness when seeking traditional loans. On an individual level, high value asset purchase, such as land and vehicles, could also be evaluated using shared credit sales and receipts data, providing both buyers and sellers with insights into the financial reliability of potential customers.
In conclusion, expanding the data shared with CRBs could significantly improve risk management, debtor control, and financial stability, creating a more transparent and efficient trading environment for businesses of all sizes.

Central Bank of Seychelles awards Creditinfo contract to Develop and Implement a new Credit Information System (SCIS)
PRESS RELEASE
Victoria– September 11, 2024 – The Central Bank of Seychelles (CBS) has today launched the Seychelles Credit Information System (SCIS) in accordance with the Credit Reporting Act, 2023, to improve credit information sharing across the financial system.
The SCIS will be administered by CBS, which will be responsible for overall supervision of the operation of the system, as well as providing awareness on the system and its governing law. The contract to develop and implement the SCIS was awarded to Creditinfo CEE a.s., a company based in the Czech Republic, through an open bidding method as per the CBS procurement process in April 2021.
The SCIS – which replaces the previous Credit Information System established under the Credit Reporting Regulations 2012 – is an improved credit information system which will enhance credit reporting and data exchange between participating institutions. It incorporates automated features requiring minimal manual processing, hence mitigating potential risks of inaccuracies in the credit information of customers.
The current participants of the SCIS include the commercial banks, Seychelles Credit Union, Development Bank of Seychelles and the Housing Finance Company (HFC). The SCIS will continue to expand with the addition of other participants through a phased approach, to include Government entities, utility companies, hire purchase and credit sales, financial leasing companies, and insurance companies. The addition of these other entities – that are also engaged in activities that provide for payment arrangements – will give a more accurate indication of the repayment history and level of indebtedness of customers, information which is essential in the decision-making process for granting credit and loan facilities.
To note that only participating institutions can access the credit information of an individual, at the consent of the individual, in compliance with the Credit Reporting Act, 2023. Individuals holding accounts with these institutions will also be able to access their own credit report through the Customer Credit Portal, which is expected to be launched in the first quarter of 2025.

Creditinfo Estonia’s sanctions’ monitoring solution for small businesses
With the ongoing aggression initiated by the Russian Federation in Ukraine, the need to implement international sanctions has to be embedded in the daily business activities of our companies.
We know that companies – operating in the fields of activity subject to such a special obligation – must do more due diligence to mitigate the risks associated with implementing sanctions, but the processes should be somewhat similar to all of the companies operating in Estonia.
Such companies, whose daily economic activities do not deal with continuous customer background research or transaction monitoring, can sometimes be in a difficult situation where they do not have enough know-how or manpower resources to assess the risk of whether one of their customers or partners falls under the established restrictions or not.
Finding such a necessary workforce is always possible, but as you know, making such a fixed cost can sometimes be impossible according to the company’s business model. In this case, one of the options is to delegate the control of said risks outside the company or to use convenient and straightforward, but at the same time reliable services to help with this task, which are available on the market.
For these cases, Creditinfo is offering small businesses the opportunity to mitigate their risks in two ways – by delegating the checking of compliance with sanction lists for their customers and partners entirely to us or by using a straightforward and convenient solution on our e-Krediidiinfo portal – WebScreening.
The web-based service WebScreening allows you to request the entry of a person of interest to you through a convenient and comprehensive user interface, both on international sanctions (European Union and the United Nations) and watch lists (so-called local sanctions and “black lists” of various countries, in some instances, for example, wanted persons) as well as persons with a national background ( PEP) from the lists.
With additional functions, it is possible to perform user management in the portal (if the company has more than one user) or view the archive of requests made. At this point, it is good to note that the archive of performed requests is convenient to use, for example, to check the performance of the employee’s duties and prove the requests made to the supervisory authority, if necessary.

Nova Credit and Creditinfo Bridge Cross-Border Credit Access for Ukrainians
NEW YORK – January 17, 2024 – Nova Credit, the leading cross-border and alternative credit analytics company, has announced a strategic collaboration with Creditinfo, a global service provider for credit information and risk management solutions, to help Ukrainians gain access to the necessary financial services needed to effectively rebuild their lives abroad. The partnership is powered by Nova Credit’s Credit Passport®, the only cross-border credit solution enabling newcomers to access their foreign credit history when applying for financial products in their new home country.
Bridging this critical data gap, Nova Credit and Creditinfo are providing Ukrainian expats and refugees with the tools they need to get started on the right financial footing upon arrival.Since March 2022, the U.S., U.K., and Canada – Nova Credit’s largest partner markets – have seen a combined 840,000 Ukrainians move*, and that number is expected to grow as the Russia-Ukraine War continues. As many will seek permanent residency in these new countries, a lack of credit history will introduce an obstacle to accessing financial services as, historically, new-to-country individuals have had no way to carry over their credit history and financial identity. This presents a challenge for both new arrivals who are looking to re-establish their lives, in addition to lenders who lack the credit data needed to provide their financial services and products to this newcomer population.
With this partnership, credit data from International Bureau of Credit Histories (IBCH) Ukraine (a Creditinfo credit bureau) – one of the three main credit bureaus in Ukraine – can be instantly translated into a local-equivalent credit report and score so that lenders who use the Credit Passport® solution can assess the credit risk of new-to-country Ukrainian applicants. Nova Credit’s partners using the Credit Passport® today include American Express, HSBC, Scotiabank, and Verizon.
“Of the many credit-excluded migrant populations around the world, few are in more dire need of support than the Ukrainian people,” said Misha Esipov, co-founder and CEO of Nova Credit. “Credit access isn’t just a piece of the puzzle; it’s a lifeline for the countless Ukrainians uprooted by the chaos of war. We set out to build this partnership with Creditinfo and IBCH Ukraine from the onset of the war, and our teams have worked hard to enable this integration. Together, we’re using data to bridge a world where everyone, regardless of where they come from, has a fair shot at building a brighter future.”
“We are delighted to partner with Nova Credit to help Ukrainians arriving in the U.S. gain access to financial services and credit checks as they look to settle and rebuild their lives,” said Satrajit Saha, Global CEO of Creditinfo Group. “Among the many challenges facing Ukrainians, is finding ways to access finance. Having a positive credit history is vital to doing many things in the U.S. such as renting a property and securing a job. This is why the information we can provide through our partnership with Nova Credit is so important – it offers the data financial institutions, employers and landlords need to provide basic services to Ukrainians wanting to rebuild their lives.”
The Credit Passport® Ukraine data integration is available for deployment into any credit risk or underwriting process across the U.S., U.K., Canada, U.A.E, and Singapore. To learn more about how to get started with Credit Passport®, visit: www.novacredit.com/business/credit-passport

An excellent Account Information Service is based on the accuracy of the categorization of transactions
In 2021, Creditinfo Estonia received permission from the Financial Supervision Authority to start offering account information services in Estonia, which later expanded to the markets of Latvia and Lithuania. Today, we have been offering the account information service on the market for almost two years. The account information service is based on the PSD2 directive. We have access to the transaction data of customers of banks and financial institutions using a secure data transmission channel and customer consent.
Account information categorization is the first and most trivial account data processing that creates customer value. In addition to the primary value, categorization is also an input for all subsequent, significantly more value-creating services (for example, debt risk assessment). Without categorization, each time finding, analyzing and displaying value from account information becomes too resource-intensive, so the end user would have to wait a relatively long time to get a result from their data.
Unfortunately, categorization is worthless if the accuracy and quality of the categories are low. Of course, every transaction on a bank account is not an input for assessing a person’s credit risk. When determining credit risk, it is critically important that the accuracy of the categorization of transactions required for analysis is as high as possible. This is to prevent credit losses for companies and overdue debts for private individuals, directly affecting both interest groups’ reputations.
The main input from categorization is related to income
