Local credit bureau did not rate this company.

 

The company has USD 56 million on its bank account.

Payments are made cash.

 

 

Our Final opinion:

 

We are reporting on an offshore company which belongs to foreign shareholders. Although it is registered in the Cayman Islands, it uses such territory only as its legal and administrative address, but all its operations are carried out abroad. It is managed by a resident registration agent and it is unknown in the marketplace, so its commercial morality and general reputation cannot be assessed, although nothing detrimental is noted upon subject. However our banking sources confirm that the company has good financial standing, even though it does not have credit history, since the payments are made cash.

 

A credit line may be considered for EUR 800,000.
