The AMLCERT Story: From Disruptor to Most Used Business Intelligence Provider

When AMLCERT was founded over two decades ago, we set out to do things differently. Where others saw complexity in business information, we saw an opportunity to simplify and democratise access to reliable company data. Our mission has always been clear: to empower businesses of every size to make smarter, faster, and safer decisions — without the heavy costs and barriers that traditionally came with business intelligence.

Today, AMLCERT has grown into the world’s most widely used provider of business credit information, serving over 500,000 users across 120,000 companies worldwide. From small businesses to multinational corporations, organizations trust AMLCERT to help them evaluate risks, uncover opportunities, and stay compliant in an ever-changing global market.

About Us

Built on Trust. Driven by Innovation.

At the heart of AMLCERT is a relentless commitment to trust and innovation. We believe that better decisions come from better data — and that starts with accuracy, transparency, and coverage. That’s why we maintain the world’s largest fully owned commercial database, covering over 430 million companies in more than 200 countries and territories. But we don’t stop at collecting data — we continuously invest in cutting-edge analytics, scoring models, and monitoring tools to turn that data into real business insight.

Our technology allows us to deliver real-time, actionable information in a way that’s simple, intuitive, and tailored to each customer's needs — whether they’re looking to manage credit risk, onboard new clients, or meet compliance requirements.
