The TPN CIPC Score is a score derived from a combination of
four data points:
·
Directors
·
Entity Age
·
Entity Status
·
Director Maturity
These factors are shown individually and then rolled into a single
CIPC Score.
There are five CIPC Scores:
·
Excellent
·
Good
·
Average
·
Below Average
·
Risky
What does “Directors” show?
•
Indicates
the total number of active directors currently associated with the company.
•
Logic
is added into the director count and “shelf” company directors are removed from
the count. In some cases, we are unable to remove the shelf directors as these
are not clearly shown.
What is “Entity Age”?
•
There
are three entity age buckets:
•
Start Up –
the business has been in operation for less than 2 years.
•
Established –
the business has been in operation for between 2 and 15 years.
•
Mature – the
business has been in operation for more than 15 years.
•
The
entity age is not linked directly to the company CIPC record creation date, but
calculations are performed as to when the company started operation (i.e.:
company no longer a shelf company).
What
is “Entity Status”?
•
Shows the current /past status of the entity.
•
Pass – if the
company is in business.
•
Fail - if the
company is no longer in business or flagged for deregistration.
•
Warning -
if the company is in business, but the status of the business has been
fluctuating between an active and inactive status.
What is “Director Maturity” ?
•
This flag indicates the total amount of
experience that the directors of the company have.
•
This status is determined by looking at all
previous and other active directorships of each individual director.
•
There is a scale of:
•
Amateur
•
Average
•
Experienced
