Many companies offer due diligence services, and the quality of their services has increased in recent years.  In addition, the U.S. Commercial Service’s International Company Profile program provides U.S. businesses with background reports on potential agents, distributors, and other companies.  Specialists can investigate the financial strength of a company and provide useful information gleaned from local credit sources, press, industry contacts, and other sources.  For more information please contact the nearest U.S. Commercial Service Export Assistance Center for more information.
