UK Cross-Registry Operational Default Watchdog (ABL Watchdog)

Companies House, Traffic Commissioner O-Licence and MEES register events joined on company number, surfacing the operational shut-down signals that typically precede insolvency by 45–90 days.

Primary statutory catalyst
Joint watchlists: Companies House + Traffic Commissioner (O-Licence) + MHCLG MEES Registers.
Target ICPs
Invoice Discounting Houses & Transport/Construction ABLs.
Core problem
Rapid, undetected operational shut-down triggers (O-Licence revocations, MEES penalization) occurring 45–90 days before insolvency.

Use cases
