The ‘Business Information’ business unit is part of Editus Luxembourg S.A. and its total assets have been acquired in full by Creditsafe per 31 of December 2023. This includes the operational activities, customers and data. Similarly, staff will join Creditsafe Group to continue and expand services in Luxembourg.
Both Editus and Creditsafe focus on providing customer-focused information solutions to accelerate their customers' long-term growth and economic stability. The acquisition will allow Editus to fully focus on its existing core services.
Creditsafe will further develop the acquired high-quality Luxembourg business information database with international linkages and new risk and compliance products to help both local companies in Luxembourg and global clients continue to grow their businesses. Creditsafe is based in Luxembourg city and will actively provide the business information services to the local market under the name ‘GraydonCreditsafe Luxembourg’.
Editus and GraydonCreditsafe Luxembourg will in this way drive innovation and increase customer value for both parties. The parties have expressed their intention to work together in the future.
"Creditsafe was looking for an opportunity to further expand its position throughout the Benelux region. Our acquisition of Graydon Group in 2022 resulted in a very strong position in the Netherlands and Belgium. Our global strategy requires a strong presence in key markets, so strengthening our position in Luxembourg was a logical next step", says Gertjan Kaart, Regional Head of Creditsafe Benelux-DE-AT.
"We want to accelerate our growth in these markets and further develop our leading market position in Europe", says Cato Syversen, CEO Creditsafe Group.
