With companies now required to adopt a risk based approach to doing business, as part of the EU's 4th Directive on Anti-Money Laundering (AML), many are eager to fulfil the necessary requirements as comprehensively and efficiently as possible.

A CRIF Vision-net.ie account is the ideal tool to assist with not only the initial due diligence checks, but also the ongoing monitoring and reviews which are also required of existing and new clients.

CRIF Vision-net.ie provides you with a gateway to the latest information on Irish, UK and Worldwide company information with new documents being added daily and in real-time. In terms of Irish data, so far this year we've added 313,862 new company documents. These include:
