About Orbis

Abstract

Learn more about the Orbis database that supplies company data and ownership links to support entity identification, record enrichment, and ownership analysis in the platform.

Moody's Orbis is a comprehensive, global database that brings together detailed company information in one place. It includes financial, firmographic, and ownership data to help teams quickly identify companies and understand how they’re connected.

Orbis covers key details such as:

  • Company identifiers and legal structure

  • Jurisdiction and registry information

  • Industry classifications

  • Direct and indirect ownership relationships

Within the platform, Orbis serves as a core data source that supports:

  • Company search

  • Entity creation

  • Entity data chapters including Firmographics and Ownership

Orbis data is used to automatically fill in key entity details and build the ownership network graph. This ensures that the companies, relationships, ownership levels, and percentages you see in the platform are consistent with the underlying Orbis data.
