An honest comparison of Prometiam and Iberinform for Spanish company data, KYB, and sanctions screening. Iberinform's core strength is its tie to the Credito y Caucion / Atradius group: bundled trade-credit-insurance claims data, recommended credit limits, and sectorial reports informed by Atradius underwriting. Prometiam does not replicate that — if you insure receivables and need claims-experience signal, Iberinform is the right tool.
For teams whose real need is the integration leg of KYB — look up a company by NIF, get registry data, officers, and corporate events, then screen against sanctions — Iberinform can be overkill and overpriced. Prometiam is a REST-first alternative covering Spain (BORME, daily), France (BODACC), the UK (Companies House), and Norway (Brønnøysundregistrene) on the same endpoints and response shape.
Prometiam does not provide a modeled credit score, adverse-media data, or natural-person identity verification; PEP screening is beta and Spain-only (no relatives or close associates). Beneficial ownership is UK PSC only. For SMB integrations the cost typically lands 80-95% lower.
