Case Study: DS Smith achieves significant time savings and secure direct access to corporate data with Diligent

Significant time saved by finance team as able to access corporate data directly

DS Smith plc is a leading British-based international packaging business headquartered in London and listed on the FTSE 250. The company needed a global, secure 24/7 solution to give departments direct access to corporate entity data—such as their Intellectual Property register—while letting administrators set per-user read-only rights to protect accuracy and control access.

DS Smith selected Diligent Entities for its customization, per-user access controls and full audit trail, enabling secure direct access and clear accountability. The finance team now saves significant time by accessing account and IP data directly, and the company uses the platform’s flexibility to meet its governance and compliance needs.
