Celebrating our 20th year in business, CoCredo was started in 2002 as part of Wyse Leasing PLC and became a stand-alone company in 2005. In August 2009 a management buyout (MBO) was completed, which allowed us to assert our independence and strength as a stand-alone business away from Wyse Leasing. As part of this MBO, we changed our name from Wyse Assist to CoCredo Ltd. The 'Credo' part of the na
me comes from the Latin for 'trust', and is the root word for credit with the 'Co' meaning both 'together' and 'company'. This is because we believe in working closely with our customers and we are proud to build relationships based on trust. In March 2010 we moved our headquarters from Chesham to the prestigious Missenden Abbey in Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire. This move gave us room to expand the business and grow our dedicated team. In 2015 Dan Hancocks took over complete ownership of the business and has since seen the company go from strength to strength. In 2017 we greatly broadened our network of data sources across the world and through detailed testing we were able to bring the best sources from around the world into one easy to use portal, supported by the very best Customer Service and Technology. In 2018 we proudly launched our Dual Reports that are unique in the industry and have won numerous innovation awards. Like no other report in the market, they allow users to benefit from multiple credit recommendations and highlight exception in the data available. Going forward we continue to develop new and innovative improvements to not only our product offering but also the functionality of our web portal. Much of this is based on feedback from our valued customers, industry associations as well as focus groups and forums, all that we are proud to be part of. During 2020, we have launched a new way of connecting with our customers, peers and friends in the industry by hosting a new Podcast called ‘Talking Credit’ which is available on Apple iTunes and YouTube. Here we discuss issues facing the industry and businesses as a whole and hope to provide insight, knowledge and advice in regards to Credit.
