Do you know the source of your data? Check the facts:

• Up-to-date. Our data is updated annually. The competition is stale by comparison. One competitor uses the IRS database of tax returns, which can be two to four years old by the time you get it.
  
• More reliable. Our data comes directly from the financial statements of RMA member banks’ customers. One of our competitors relies on interviews with company personnel to obtain financial information.
  
• More consistent. We have been providing the same consistent data for more than 88 years. This means you can accurately compare your customers to the industry standard year after year.
  
• More value. We offer you all this value for far less than any other resource. In one case, you’d pay $1,000 more for far less.
