5 Advantages of Online Registry Statements:
The credit report is a comprehensive overview of all credits that you are drawing on or are currently applying for. It also contains information about regular and extraordinary repayments, information about overdue repayments, i. e., about repayments that have not been made in accordance with the previously agreed repayment terms, and other data about the parameters of your loans or applications. Part of the Detailed credit report also includes verification of the existence of liabilities in the REPI and the ISIR and CDR public registers.
Useful Data for Institutions and Clients
A statement from the registers is a valuable document for both the client and the financial institution. When you apply for a loan, financial institutions assess your credibility. They examine whether you have provided all the required information truthfully and whether you have disclosed all your commitments, loans, and credit cards. Financial institutions have access to your statement from the registers, which contains this information. Statements from the BRKI and NRKI registers do not contain information about your income, only about your liabilities.
Detailed credit report also includes verification of the existence of liabilities in the REPI and the ISIR and CDR public registers.
Confirmation of Financial Condition
A statement from the registers offers insight into your credit history. If it demonstrates that you repay loans in a timely and proper manner, you have a better chance of obtaining a loan compared to someone who repays their obligations late or not at all. A statement from the registers is evidence of your payment reliability and serves as a foundation for successfully building your financial future. Be cautious when dealing with financial institutions that do not work with statements from the registers. If they are not a participant in one of the BRKI and NRKI registers and do not request a statement from the registers, they are unlikely to have a genuine interest in ensuring you can repay their loan."
The statement from the registers is a comprehensive source of information containing both negative and positive data regarding an individual's overall payment discipline and credit history.
Identification Data
The statement from the registers begins with identification data – for non-business individuals, this includes PERSONAL INFORMATION: name, surname, address, personal identification number, and date of birth. The identifiers also include a code assigned to the subject in the register. If the subject is a business entity, the identification data is supplemented with a company identification number (IČO) and a tax identification number (DIČ).
The summary overview is an introductory page that is part of the Detailed credit report and summarizes basic details of obligations from the CIBR and NBCIR, the REPI, and verification of existing records in the ISIR and CDR public registers.
Summary Evaluation of Credit Contracts
The Detailed credit report continues by listing all credits by type of operation and their phase: from application, rejection, recall, existence, to termination.
Individual loans are divided by type of operation into Loans, Housing Loans, Business Loans, Financial and Operational Leasings, Overdrafts and Current Account Debts, Cards and Revolving Loans, Accounts for services, and Factoring.
The following is an overview of the ratio of liabilities in individual registers and a comparison with the previous month for Total Monthly Repayments, Total Debt Amounts, and Outstanding Amounts after Due Date. In the Detailed credit report, these three items are calculated over both registers, i. e., for example, the total monthly payment calculated from all loans in the CIBR and NBCIR. For each item, you can also see the distribution of how much of that amount is in the Banking or Non-Banking Register.
All loan amounts are always listed in the national currency.
List of Contracts
In the next section, details of each individual contract or loan are provided. The details of each type of loan first display items that are current for the given month. For example, the amount of the next installment as of the statement date, the number of remaining installments, and others. Among these items are also so-called maximum calculated items, such as Maximum Unpaid Amount or Worst Status. These values are calculated from the entire history of the contract.
Below this list, there is a table with the repayment profile. The repayment profile provides a detailed description of the last 24 months, such as the trend of the remaining installment amounts in individual months. At the level of each month, you can also see the Unpaid Amounts Past Due if the client did not meet their obligations on time.
Summary of All Applications
The last section provides an overview of all applications made by the client and their role in them. This includes whether the client applied for a loan themselves or played a role as a guarantor or co-applicant. It also includes applications that were rejected by the financial institution or those that the applicant withdrew themselves. In the rejected and withdrawn phases, the applications are displayed on the statement for an additional 12 months or 6 months for applications in the Non-Banking Register.
At the end of each credit report, there is a brief explanation of the statement details, followed by contact details of the registers' Client Center, where you can reach out in case of any questions or requests for corrections. Links to the information memoranda of the individual registers are also included.

It also includes data from the Central Distrain Register. The header contains personal information of the applicant. Furthermore, it indicates whether the applicant has a record in the insolvency register, verifies the validity of the applicant's ID, and whether the person is or isn't a statutory representative or self-employed.
From the CIBR/NBCIR registers, it only contains summarized information. For detailed repayment information, it is necessary to request a Detailed credit report. It provides the total monthly installment, the number of open contracts in the registers, the outstanding amount overdue, and information on the maximum owed amount. It also includes the user's credit rating.
From the REPI register, it includes details about the number of contracts, overdue amounts, or the number of terminated contracts with outstanding debt. If a person is not listed in the REPI register, this information is stated on the statement, indicating that the applicant has no loans with companies that are members of REPI.

The Detailed credit report is a valuable tool for building a positive credit history. We recommend checking it four times a year. This helps prevent potential issues with identity theft. Having an overview means the ability to make informed decisions. At the same time, you'll find out whether you 'have what it takes' to take on more debt.
The REPI register, established as the third in line, is the younger sibling of the BRKI and NRKI registers. It was founded by the company CRIF – Czech Credit Bureau and is officially named CRIF – Registry of Payment Information. Its main purpose is to gather companies that provide their clients with some form of service based on installments. This could be a loan, installment purchases, or invoiced purchases with deferred payment.
The register is intended for credit providers, e‑shops, property rental companies, providers of telecommunication or data services, and cable television providers. You can find a list of registry members who share information among themselves HERE.
The REPI register contains both negative and positive information. Negative indicates that a client does not pay their obligations for services or loan installments on time, while positive contains information that the client pays their obligations on time and in full. Registry members are companies that wish to verify a client's payment history before providing them with an installment service. However, payment history is not the sole criterion. Current income and expenses of the client in relation to the requested loan/credit amount are also assessed. A good payment history can be a significant factor.
If you only need brief information, some data from the REPI register is included in the MyCredit.
You can obtain REPI Report most affordably in its online version. When verifying through bank identity, you'll only pay a hundred crowns. You can request it if you're unsure whether you owe money to a place not covered by the credit registers CIBR/NBCIR. If you want the REPI statement sent by mail, its price will also be 200 CZK. Additionally, postage or cash-on-delivery fees will be added to the shipment cost.

NetAgent continuously monitors thousands of websites and millions of data points. It alerts users if there is a threat to their personal or financial information in the online environment, including the dark web, deep web, and IRC channels.
It is the only monitoring solution designed for proactive international cyber detection, free from language barriers, and capable of uncovering identity theft worldwide. It offers the ability to constantly monitor the movement of personal and financial data on the internet to prevent their unlawful use and allows the user to react quickly and take necessary protective measures.
When you activate the NetAgent service on the kolikmam.cz portal, it initiates monitoring of the tracked data. Once an elevated risk is detected, you will be alerted via SMS or email, depending on your preference.
NetAgent watches over your personal, address, financial, and contact information, including login details for applications: name, surname, address, date of birth, personal identification number, ID card number, passport number, driver's license number, bank account number in national and international format, credit card number, email addresses, and phone numbers.

NetAgent monitors online activity related to the personal information you have defined. This alert signifies that our monitoring technology has identified information on the internet that matches the data you are monitoring. It provides detailed information about the compromise as well as the source.
NetAgent significantly reduces the risk of identity theft by providing early notification if your personal information is in any way compromised. The service allows for prevention and swift resolution in the event of identity theft. It is also advisable to activate the service #kolikmam365. This monitors activities in the registries (CIBR and NBCIR) and checks for any new events or requests for credit products in any of the registries. Unfortunately, no identity protection tool can completely prevent instances of identity theft.
That's true, but IdentiNet is how to find out about the event in time to react to it. Especially when you are applying for a loan, such an event could put you at a disadvantage in the eyes of the financial institution. Every loan counts towards your creditworthiness, and as credit fraud leads to defaults, the loan provider will sooner or later start reporting your overdue debts to the registers. IdentiNet thus significantly reduces the impact of credit fraud and similar events on more than just your creditworthiness. In addition, the experts at the Client Center will provide you with the support you need.
This service focuses on preventing credit fraud. Therefore, the most critical event is the creation of a new loan in your name in the registers. If someone has misused your data and taken credit for you, you must act quickly. That’s why IdentiNet service includes support from the Client Center, which will advise you on how best to deal with the situation.
IdentiNet monitors your data in the registers to see if there is a new loan or application in your name. It also sends a query to the Central Execution Registry once a month to see if any new foreclosures have been filed in your name. It also includes complete monitoring of the NetAgent service. It monitors your personal, address, financial, and contact information, including application login details such as name, surname, address, date of birth, birth number, ID number, passport number, driving license number, and bank account number in the national and international format, credit card number, email addresses, and phone numbers. For web monitoring, you choose the scope of the monitored data at your discretion.
When we detect an event in the monitored data, we will send you a notification email or SMS. All events can also be found in the archive of the client zone of the kolikmam.cz portal. You can set up the SMS or email notification method when you add the service to your shopping cart or anytime after logging into the client area. If you do not have either method set, you will always see all new events in the Data Monitoring service details.
First, check what type of event it is. For example, if a new loan has been created in your name, the best thing to do is to immediately contact the financial institution that sent the new loan to the register and alert them about possible credit fraud.

Credit registries are secure databases that record information about clients of financial and non-financial institutions who have or have had obligations to these institutions in the past. Both financial and non-financial institutions can exchange this information about clients through the registries. This primarily concerns information about the ability to repay obligations, also known as creditworthiness.
In general, credit registries are databases containing information about all types of clients – both legal entities and individuals – citizens and entrepreneurs who are in some way associated with a provided loan. Credit registries are designed to provide financial and non-financial institutions with data about clients needed for granting loans and thus prevent providing loans to 'non-creditworthy' clients.
Registries also serve the clients themselves, especially in cases where a client is reliable and financial and non-financial institutions can verify this through the registry. This leads to a faster process of providing financial resources. Additionally, clients can assess whether they can afford another loan or not by checking their own credit history in the registries through ordering a Registry Extract.
In the Bank Client Information Registry (CIBR): In addition to the client's identification information (i. e., name, surname, date of birth, personal identification number, place and country of birth, and address), CIBR also contains information indicating whether there has been or will be a contractual (credit) relationship between the client and the bank. It also includes personal information about the client's financial obligations that have arisen, will arise, or may arise towards the bank, such as the number of existing credit agreements, the amount of individual loans, repayments, repayment history, information on securing obligations, and more.
CIBR also contains information about whether you are currently applying for any credit product. The information is stored in CIBR for the entire existence of the credit product and then for a period of 4 years after its termination. If the requested contract between you and the bank has not been concluded, this information is kept in CIBR for a period of 1 year from the date of submitting your application to conclude the relevant contract.
In the Non-Bank Client Information Registry (NBCIR): For each individual or legal entity, the registries provide basic identification information such as name, personal identification number/tax identification number, and address. They also include information about the type of product used and how much the individual or legal entity repays or has repaid in the past. Specifically, this includes the number of credit agreements, the amounts of individual loans, and the amounts of regular repayments.
The information also encompasses the repayment history of these obligations and details about their collateral. The registry also maintains a so-called positive credit history – indicating that the client repays their obligations properly and on time. Additionally, the registry contains information about whether a particular person is currently applying for any credit product.
How long are the records kept in credit bureaus?
The information contained in the registries is regularly updated on a monthly basis and is stored for the duration of the contractual relationship with the financial institution, and for an additional 4 years after its termination. If a contract with the client has not been concluded, the information in the form of a loan application is kept in the Non-Bank Registry for a period of six months, and in the Bank Registry for a period of one year.
In CIBR/NBCIR, both individuals (citizens and self-employed individuals) who have or have had any loan product with a financial institution that is a participant in the CIBR/NBCIR registries, are listed. It also includes individuals who are currently applying for a loan product and have not yet entered into a loan agreement.
Banking Client Information Registry (CIBR)
The Client Information Banking Registry (CIBR) maintains a database of contractual (credit) relationships between banks and their clients. CIBR displays information about clients that reflects their creditworthiness and credibility, including details about the overall credit engagement of the client, utilization of individual credit products, and the payment behavior of the client. CIBRcontains both positive and negative information, providing banks with comprehensive credit histories of their clients. This, in turn, enables clients to build their own credit history. With the positive information in the registry, banks can better evaluate the potential risk of over-indebtedness for clients applying for new credit. The registry began its operations in 2002. The Banking Client Information Registry is operated by CBCB – Czech Banking Credit Bureau, a.s. For more information, visit www.cbcb.cz

A lot can be gleaned from the proposed loan agreement about the seriousness of the loan provider and the loan conditions. Check if it includes, among other things, the following items. If not, ask why and request their inclusion:
There is no one-size-fits-all guide that could describe in a few sentences how to choose the ideal loan product. Much depends on the applicant's specific situation: how much money they need, for what purpose, what their current and future repayment options, collateral, and guarantees are. However, there are a few useful guidelines. Once you choose a suitable loan product for your purpose, seek recommendations from acquaintances or online for offers from several competing financial institutions. Try to compare them. Also, try to verify the reliability of a specific financial institution from multiple sources.
Are you having trouble meeting repayment deadlines? Or perhaps you're already not meeting your obligations? The first step is immediate communication with your creditor. They will certainly try to find a solution. And undoubtedly, they are bombarding you with phone calls, emails, and letters. A ruined client is of no value to them. Once you bury your head in the sand, they may take drastic measures against you. Later on, you may personally feel the painful consequences of words like execution, bankruptcy, insolvency, and liquidation.
It's quite common for people to forget about their obligations. In the best case, they'll remember their forgotten debt when applying for a new loan; in the worst case, only when the bailiff comes knocking. If you haven't been meticulously keeping track of your obligations so far, it's not easy to get a clear picture of your current situation. Just imagine having to call all the financial institutions you've ever borrowed money from! And of course, we're not just talking about large loans that you probably remember, but also about electronics on installment plans or credit cards. Regularly check your registry statements. Be careful! It's not enough to just keep an eye on loans directly in your name, but also on loans where you act as a guarantor. If the person you're guaranteeing for can't make the payments (due to long-term disability, injury, and so on), then the debt shifts to you. Be very careful about who you guarantee for and stay informed about their repayment status.
Are you looking to buy your own home but worried you won't qualify for a mortgage? Do you want to secure the most advantageous loan terms? One straightforward way to boost your credibility in the eyes of a bank is by building your credit history.
Banks must carefully consider who they can grant a high loan amount to and who they cannot. This protects not only their own funds, but also the funds of their clients. The bank wants clients who can demonstrate the ability to repay loans because otherwise, they will never recover the full amount of their investment. Clients who may struggle to repay a loan are less likely to be approved. This can sometimes evoke negative emotions. Imagine, however, getting a mortgage only to realize later that you're unable to make the payments. In the end, you could still lose the dream property. That's why it's better to carefully consider whether the loan might burden you too much.
Records in registries are a handy tool. They allow the bank to easily check your payment behavior. It's not true that the bank values a client who owes nothing anywhere the most. The bank most values clients who can demonstrate the ability to repay all their loans smoothly. So, don't hesitate to take out a car lease or buy a washing machine on installments. On the contrary, if you repay promptly and on time, the bank will view you as a reliable client.
If you plan to apply for a mortgage in the future, try first with a smaller loan to see your repayment capabilities. When you manage to repay the loan properly, you'll receive better terms for your mortgage
Under no circumstances should you succumb to the temptations of untrustworthy debt relief companies – not all of them have your best interests at heart. Also, refrain from taking out another loan to cover unpaid debts. Both of these solutions will only deepen the debt trap you've fallen into. In any case, seek advice from one of the financial distress counseling services, or other useful organizations that provide free guidance and assistance. We certainly don't wish a burdensome insolvency situation upon you. Nevertheless, below we explain a few terms you may come across.
When evaluating competitive offers, don't rely solely on the interest rate. This is especially true when it doesn't always represent an annual rate – especially if it seems suspiciously low. In such cases, the percentage figure may not be per annum (per annum), but perhaps per month (per mensem). It's much more appropriate to compare using a more comprehensive indicator – the so-called APR, or Annual Percentage Rate of Costs. In reality, you're not only paying a certain percentage of interest on the borrowed amount annually, but also various fees related to contract closure, loan administration, account management, and so on. These are already included in the APR. So, the APR shows the cost of the loan more accurately than the interest rate. Of course, it would be ideal if the APR were the same as the interest rate. This would mean you're not paying any extra fees. However, that's unrealistic. Through the APR, you should also only compare products with comparable repayment periods and installment amounts.
Another important indicator is how much you will actually pay for the entire loan. Utilize online calculators. Seek references. Utilize the services of financial consultants and advisors. It's worth it. Also, check what would happen if you were late with a payment. Penalty interest rates can vary greatly among different financial institutions and in some cases, be unreasonably high.
