Why read The Middesk Brief?

The Brief is a Middesk publication created to break down what’s happening in the world of business, compliance and fraud.

We have access to billions of data points used by financial institutions and other organizations to make decisions with authority and confidence.

Our edge

Middesk is one of the leading companies in business verification and has expanded its footprint to cover credit, risk, fraud and business registrations.

We will use our own data to share insights and analysis that will show you what current events mean for businesses, financial institutions and the broader economy.

We’ll pair up our proprietary datasets with other data sources to provide the best view into each topic.

Who’s behind The Brief?

My name is Inti Pacheco and I’m a Data Insights Editor at Middesk. I’ll be your guide but we’ll have guest writers from time to time.

Before joining Middesk, I worked as a data journalist at The Wall Street Journal writing stories about business, economics and finance for about a decade.

I grew up in Costa Rica, going to hardcore shows and to the movies. Now, I log everything I watch on Letterboxd. I live with my wife in Brooklyn, New York.
