Additional Information for Corporate Buyer
If cover for commercial risk on a foreign company is applied for, then the NZECO will need to undertake a full credit assessment and will require the additional information:
1. Audited financial accounts (for the previous two years of trading PLUS the current year of trading), including: - the balance sheets;- profit and loss accounts;
- historical cashflow statements; and
- the notes associated with these statements.
2. A forecast of expected future cashflows for the next two years.
3. Information regarding any debt facilities already extended to buyers.
4. A credit report (for example from Dun & Bradstreet) that has been conducted within the last three months.
5. A brief outline of the buyer’s market.
This list is an indication of the basic information requirements. Further information may be also sought depending on the risk profile of the buyer and the country.
