Enhanced Due Diligence Software
Get your EDD reports in a third of the time for a third of the cost
The ability to meet enhanced due diligence (EDD) requirements is a must for organizations that are engaging with new suppliers, vetting parties involved in a merger or acquisition, or need to meet AML, anti-bribery and anti-corruption obligations. Unfortunately, traditional service providers can take weeks to deliver your EDD reports and continue to increase their prices for the same basic service.
Alessa’s enhanced due diligence software allows you to order reports directly from the application and deliver them in one third of the time for one-third of the average industry price.
