In the public court of law, bankruptcy filings are important references when taking on balance sheet risk. Each bankruptcy provides details about all aspects of the case proceedings; these details include:

• Debtor: the individual or entity that owes money to another party.
• Trustee: the individual responsible for the bankruptcy and all case proceedings
• Court: the court in which the hearing takes place, including the office number, district, and case number.
• Chapter: the chapter in the collection of types of court cases that Bankruptcy falls into
• Updates: a sequence of events for the case; it includes a description of the update, a reference to the update, and the event date.

In sum, reviewing and monitoring bankruptcies can help determine the level of financial risk that is being taken on when onboarding and lending to businesses.

For bankruptcy coverage related to the individual, please refer to People Bankruptcies in the Orders section of our API Reference.
