1. Perform due diligence research on a company or person
With hundreds of sources at your fingertips, you can perform your due diligence research on a company or individual and be assured the search covers all the bases. Through the improved search form, we make every effort to help you enter exactly the right search query, and even provide default preferences to help ensure you find the most relevant results.
2. Review the latest news about a company or person, and focus exclusively on negative news
When searching its thousands of news sources, Nexis Diligence™ categorizes the results as both standard news and negative news. To help make this distinction between the two types of news, Nexis Diligence™ lets you decide what actually constitutes negative news: in User Preferences, you can view our curated list of negative terms and choose which ones you want to include by default in your news searches, and you can also add your own terms.
3. Use a full set of tools to review your search
By default, when you perform your search, your results are displayed as a Snapshot of the different categories of information. Using these categorized links, you can drill down into specific results, focusing on just the information you’re most interested in.
4. Check sanctions, regulatory lists, law enforcement watchlists, and politically exposed persons (PEPs) lists
Search results are categorized so you can quickly view if a person or company you are researching has been sanctioned or added to a watchlist.
You can also identify whether a person or company is listed as a PEP.
