Dun & Bradstreet Certificate for Financial Stability
WEST HUNGÁRIA BAU Ltd. Recognized Among the Most Financially Stable Companies
Dun & Bradstreet, the international provider of business information and credit risk solutions, evaluates the financial stability and business reliability of every active company using a continuously validated and internationally recognized methodology developed by leading experts. Based on this objective assessment, WEST HUNGÁRIA BAU Ltd. (WHB) has been recognized as one of the most financially stable companies.
We are honored that, based on Dun & Bradstreet’s independent company rating, WHB has been ranked among the highest-rated businesses. Conducting our business with integrity and transparency has always been one of our core values, and it is particularly meaningful to us that an independent international expert has confirmed our exceptionally low probability of insolvency.
We believe that the Dun & Bradstreet Certificate further strengthens the trust placed in us by our clients, suppliers, and employees—trust that is essential for building long-term, sustainable business relationships. The recognition of our company’s stability by an independent international organization confirms that we are on the right path in continuously developing and strengthening our business.
As the certification is awarded solely on the basis of objective professional criteria, companies cannot apply or nominate themselves for it. This makes the Dun & Bradstreet Certificate a genuine mark of distinction that sets WHB apart in the marketplace.
WHB has been awarded the Dun & Bradstreet AAA Certificate, the highest possible rating, signifying that the financial risk associated with doing business with our company is exceptionally low.
The Dun & Bradstreet Certificate is based on the company’s internationally recognized credit rating system, which has been assessing the reliability of businesses for decades. Certificates are issued with AAA, AA, and A ratings, indicating the financial stability and creditworthiness of certified companies. The AAA company rating was introduced in 1989, and since 1996 companies have had the opportunity to demonstrate their business reliability through an official certificate. The certification enables eligible businesses to communicate their recognized financial strength, reliability, and creditworthiness to partners and stakeholders. Today, the Dun & Bradstreet Certificate is widely used across numerous European countries and throughout various sectors of the business community.
The Dun & Bradstreet rating is based on information obtained from multiple official sources. In Hungary, these include data from the Ministry of Justice, the Court of Registration, the National Tax and Customs Administration (NAV), and other public authorities. In addition to official records, the assessment incorporates financial information such as balance sheets, income statements, and historical performance trends. It also considers company demographics, including the company’s age, business activity, size, ownership structure, and ownership relationships.
Furthermore, the rating incorporates payment experience data to evaluate whether a company settles its invoices on time or with delays, thereby assessing its payment discipline. The methodology also takes into account a wide range of additional information, including enforcement proceedings and relevant media coverage.
The Dun & Bradstreet rating reflects not only a company’s current financial stability but also predicts the likelihood of insolvency over the coming twelve months. Based on this independent assessment, we are proud to state that WHB is well positioned to remain a financially stable and reliable participant in the market in the years ahead.
