What Are Unsecured Creditor Claims
Here at Know-it we help you uncover a potential cashflow catastrophe before it happens, thanks to our unsecured creditor claims data.
This information is so valuable and will save you the stress of potentially losing out on being paid for invoices you’ve raised.
So, what are unsecured creditor claims?
Unsecured creditor claims identify which of your customers have suffered financial losses as a result of their own customers going into liquidation or administration.
When a company goes insolvent the chances of recovering any money you’re owed from this particular business are extremely slim.
If you can see one of your customers who has an outstanding invoice has just lost out on a substantial sum you can start to contingency plan in the event they struggle to pay their balance when it’s due.
How unsecured creditor claims data works with Know-it
Know-it brings a feed of unsecured creditor claims relating to your customers directly to you!
You’ll see clearly which of your customers have lost money due to administrations or liquidations, the amount lost and the company who owed the outstanding amount.
This will give you a clear indication as to how exposed to risk your business currently is.

Combine unsecured creditor claims data with your business credit reports for deeper insight
We can’t stress the importance of running business credit reports on your customers. In fact, you should do this every time a business places a new order, whether they’re a new or existing customer.
This is because business credit scores and limits change, they’re not fixed!
