Configuring BREX the kompany API

BREX the kompany API is a data provider you can use to run these checks:

• Company filings retrieval
• Company registry check

Company filings retrieval

How it works

This is the default behaviour for a variant of the Company filings retrieval check with BREX the kompany API as the data provider.

The check is performed by searching the company’s country of incorporation and registration number in the registry for the jurisdiction in which the company is incorporated.

The check passes when any documents are found in the registry.

When the check passes:

• The names of the documents are displayed in the check results.
• If the following information is available, it’s also displayed in the check results: filing date, filing type, description, and source.
• All free documents are imported so you can see them.
• All paid documents have the cost displayed and the option to purchase them. Once a document is purchased, it's imported so you can see it.

If the company’s country of incorporation isn’t covered by BREX the kompany API, an error is displayed.

Configuration options

There are no additional configuration options for the Company filings retrieval check variant with BREX the kompany API.

Testing your configuration

Once the check variant is configured, follow these steps in your demo environment to test whether it's working as expected.

Company registry check

How it works

This is the default behaviour for a variant of the Company registry check with BREX the kompany API as the data provider.

The check is performed by searching the company’s country of incorporation and registration number in the registry for the jurisdiction in which the company is incorporated.

The check passes when all of the following are true:

1. The company name is found in the registry.
2. The company status in the registry is active.
3. The company number and country of incorporation from the company’s profile match the data found in the registry.

When the check passes, the basic company information (e.g. name, company number, incorporation date) as well as a list of all the company officers found in the registry is imported into the check results.

If the company name is found, but any of the other data is missing or does not match, the check returns a Partial match.

If the company name cannot be found, the check fails.

If the company’s country of incorporation isn’t covered by BREX the kompany API, an error is displayed.

There are no additional configuration options for the Company registry check variant with BREX the kompany API.

However, this check can be used on the Identify officers task, which includes configuration options to control how the officers returned by BREX the kompany API are verified. Learn more about task configuration options.
