About Us

Company Watch provides in-depth analysis of the financial health of companies worldwide using its unique H-Score® methodology. Since its launch in 1998, the H-Score® has identified virtually every company failure in advance.

The proprietary measures, the H-Score®, the PoD® (Probability of Distress percentage) and the Risk Rating were initially developed over five man years. Our research and development team continue to monitor and enhance the models, to ensure that our clients can make business decisions with confidence.

The Company Watch service is used by major international blue chip corporations, banks, fund managers, insurance companies, public sector bodies, Chartered Accountants and other professional organisations throughout the world, many of whom have been clients since the product was first launched.
