Global Database gives public bodies corporate records read directly from 400+ government registers across 200+ countries. Ownership, control, officers and status — each field carries the register it came from, the filing it was read out of, and the date it was retrieved.
Nothing about the bidder changed. What changed is how far the record goes. Each layer below was read from a filing in the register where that company is incorporated — sourced, dated, and traceable back to the document it came from.
Each of these functions is required by statute to establish something about a company that its own registry cannot answer.
Establish exclusion grounds not only for the bidder but for connected persons, parent undertakings and named sub-contractors — including those incorporated where you have no read access.
Each one is a filing at a source register, not a difference between two snapshots. An alert means the company actually changed — a share moved, an officer was appointed, a designation was added — rather than a record being reformatted somewhere in a vendor's pipeline.
Perpetual monitoring keeps every entity in your register under watch from the day the contract is signed until the day it expires. Changes are surfaced when they are filed, not at the next scheduled review.
Plain language in, sourced answer out — with the register attached to every claim.
The same model over the API — inside your own case management or risk system.
Five steps, and the register is named at every one of them. If a value cannot be traced back to step one, it does not ship as filed.
Taken from the government register that issued the record, under the access arrangement that register requires — including registers that charge for or restrict access.
Native formats, languages and scripts are parsed into a common schema. The original value is retained alongside the normalised one.
Matched on registration identifiers first, then name, address, officer and ownership signals. Below threshold, candidates are surfaced rather than merged.
Register, document class and retrieval timestamp are bound to the field, not to the record. Modelled values are labelled at this step and never later.
Served through API, platform, bulk or Regis. Every prior state is kept, which is what makes a point-in-time reconstruction possible.
A designated person rarely holds a majority stake in their own name. They hold minority positions through several vehicles in several jurisdictions, each individually below the line. Screening the bidder against a list returns clean. Resolving the graph does not.
