On going loads

Germany – We have loaded so far 2.3 million entities registered in the company register in Germany. This includes all companies removed from the register in the last 5 years. The original plan was to load all companies. However in discussions with clients, the feedback is that there is no real benefit in loading older deletions from the register, the emphasis must be on current active companies and new registrations. New company registrations will be loaded daily, as well as mutations and inactivations.
