CNRC extract or business intelligence report: what is the difference?
The Centre National du Registre du Commerce (CNRC) issues the trade register extract: name, legal form, RC number, declared activities, share capital, registered office and managers. It proves the company legally exists, not that it can pay. A business intelligence report starts from that official data and adds the analysis an export credit or supplier decision needs.

Frequently asked questions
How can one obtain financial data on private Algerian companies?
In Algeria, most private companies do not publish financial statements online. Finance Go bridges this gap by combining CNRC filings with physical on-site inspections and discreet trade inquiries.
What is the difference between a CNRC extract and a business intelligence report?
The trade register extract issued by the CNRC proves the company legally exists and gives its registration details. A business intelligence report starts from that data and adds financial analysis, a credit risk assessment, ownership and the legal notices published in the BOAL.
What do I need to identify an Algerian company?
The company name is usually enough. The trade register (RC) number or the NIF tax number avoids any confusion between companies with similar names.
Which financial statements do you analyse for an Algerian company?
The statements prepared under the Algerian financial accounting system (SCF): balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and notes. When they are not available, our analysts produce a financial estimate from the information gathered.
