Case Study: Large Private Equity Firm achieves better investment opportunity identification with Dun & Bradstreet

Private Equity Firm Opens Up a New World of Investment Opportunities

Large Private Equity Firm, a global investor with more than $100 billion in assets under management, needed better data to identify viable acquisition targets and assess risk in a competitive, high-stakes market. The firm turned to Dun & Bradstreet and its D&B Analytics Studio and D&B Data Cloud to gain deeper insight into private companies, financial health, supply chain risk, fraud, ESG, and other critical factors.

Dun & Bradstreet implemented data matching and linking through Enterprise Data Management, connecting the firm’s internal data to the D-U-N-S® Number and more than 16,000 D&B attributes. With normalized, trusted data and a holistic view of company structures, the firm improved its models, strengthened due diligence, and gained a comprehensive view of risk and opportunity across its portfolio, helping identify better investments and uncover hidden opportunities.
