Business Credit Report Searches
Know who you are dealing with before you commit.
A credit search shows the financial and legal background of a company you are about to trade with, lend to or partner with.
You are extending credit or terms to a new customer.
You want to check a supplier or partner's background.
Decisions are being made without proper information.

Before you sign that supplier agreement. Before you extend credit terms to a new customer. Before you commit to a joint venture, an acquisition, or a major contract — there's one question worth asking:
"Can this company actually pay, deliver, and honour what they're promising?"
A business credit report answers that question with hard data — financial standing, payment behaviour, court cases, directorships, shareholders, and more. It's the single most cost-effective way to protect your business from bad debts, fraud, and partnerships gone wrong.
At KKHO & Partners, we obtain verified business credit reports on Malaysian companies through official sources — so you can make decisions based on facts, not assumptions or word-of-mouth.
What's in a Business Credit Report?
A typical Malaysian business credit report includes:
- Company profile — registration details, status, business address, paid-up capital
- Directors and shareholders — current and historical, with shareholding percentages
- Financial summary — paid-up capital, latest filed financial highlights (where available)
- Payment behaviour — credit history and payment patterns with suppliers
- Litigation records — court cases, winding-up petitions, judgments
- Charges registered — bank loans, debentures, and other secured borrowings
- Group structure — related companies, holding company links, subsidiaries
- Credit rating or risk score — an objective assessment of credit-worthiness
Different report types focus on different angles — financial deep-dive, litigation focus, risk scoring, or full 360-degree profile. We help you pick the right one for your decision.
Who Uses Business Credit Reports?
Business credit reports are widely used across Malaysia by:
- Suppliers and vendors assessing whether to extend credit terms to new customers
- Companies onboarding new clients as part of KYC and due diligence
- Investors and acquirers evaluating target companies before signing
- Lenders and financiers assessing borrower risk
- Joint venture partners verifying each other's standing
- Insurers and underwriters pricing commercial risk
- Procurement and tender teams vetting potential contractors
If a business decision involves trust, money, or future commitments — a credit report is usually worth the small cost.
