On July 27, 2005, D&B, the leading provider of global business information, tools, and insight, announced its acquisition of LiveCapital, a leading provider of online credit management software.

LiveCapital's credit management software will complement D&B's existing Risk Management capabilities, providing customers with an enhanced credit management experience. This acquisition is part of D&B’s ongoing effort to improve the way its customers access and leverage DUNSRight™, D&B’s proprietary quality process, so they can make confident business decisions.

D&B and LiveCapital believe that the combined businesses will offer more to both current and future customers that face unique challenges in credit risk management. The Livecapital team is looking forward to the next phase of its journey with D&B.
