Major Relationships Need More Than Wealth Screening

An estimated capacity score can help identify a potential donor, but it does not explain how wealth was created, whether it is liquid, which causes matter, who is connected to the individual, or whether the relationship presents a reputational concern.

Diligencify brings these dimensions together so fundraising and governance teams can make better-informed, proportionate decisions.

Intelligence Across the Donor Journey

Identify and enrich

Use the HNWI Database, internal lists, alumni data, or defined research requests to identify and enrich potential major donors.

Explore HNWI and UHNWI Database →

Understand capacity

Assess net worth, liquid-wealth potential, business ownership, investments, assets, Source of Wealth, and recent liquidity events.

Explore Wealth Intelligence →

Understand affinity

Research giving history, foundations, board roles, causes, interests, education, affiliations, and relevant relationships.

Prepare engagement

Give development officers a concise, source-backed briefing that supports relevant conversation and coordinated cultivation.

Conduct proportionate diligence

Review litigation, regulatory matters, adverse media, political exposure, and wider reputation according to the institution's policy and the significance of the relationship.

Monitor meaningful change

Track new gifts, liquidity, appointments, foundation activity, reputational developments, and other events that may affect timing or institutional review.

How Diligencify is used

Profiles bring together wealth capacity, Source of Wealth, career and business interests, giving history, foundations, philanthropic interests, relevant networks, and reputational context. The research helps the development team prioritize prospects and approach cultivation with a clearer understanding of capacity and fit.

Operational value

Stakeholders work from one structured profile instead of assembling information independently across scattered sources. Donor opportunity and institutional risk can be considered within the same briefing.
