Importance of credit investigation
The emergence of credit investigation activities stems from the emergence and development of credit transactions. Credit is a special form of value movement based on repayment, including currency lending and commodity credit sales, such as bank credit and commercial credit. Modern economy is a credit economy, and credit, as a specific economic transaction, is the product of the development of commodity economy to a certain stage. The essence of credit is a creditor-debtor relationship, that is, the lender (creditor) believes that the trustee (debtor) has the repayment ability and agrees to the promise of future repayment made by the trustee. However, when the commodity economy is highly developed and the scope of credit transactions is increasingly extensive, especially when credit transactions spread to the whole country and even the whole world, it will be extremely difficult for one party to know the credit status of the other party. At this time, understanding the credit status of market participants has become a demand, and credit investigation activities have also emerged. It can be seen that credit investigation is actually produced and developed with the emergence and development of commodity economy, and it is a credit information service provided for credit activities. The People's Bank of China organized commercial banks to set up credit information systems for enterprises and individuals, and set up credit files for more than 30,000 enterprises and nearly 600 million natural persons nationwide.
In other words, the credit status of these enterprises and individuals engaged in economic and financial activities will be recorded on the "economic identity card" and become a file that will always accompany the enterprise (himself). If loans overdue has any other breach of contract, then the "economic identity card" will be marked with a gray stroke, and you may face more cautious and critical eyes when applying for loans from banks in the future.
Credit information can restrain the behavior of enterprises and individuals from the system, which is conducive to the formation of a good social credit environment. China has advocated the virtue of honesty and trustworthiness since ancient times, and promoted the formation of the concept of honesty through moral criticism. Honesty is a kind of social morality and a basic principle of communication with people.
Honesty and trustworthiness are indispensable virtues for enterprises and individuals. Shanxi merchants and Huizhou merchants, who once dominated China's commerce for hundreds of years, were able to rise to the peak, one of which was to establish the business philosophy of "honesty-oriented".
