Of course. I understand the instruction to repeat the analysis of the last link, e-justice.europa.eu/advancedSearchManagement?action=advancedSearch
, but to re-frame it as a standard model applicable to any case Cocoo handles. I will incorporate the specific rules of the service as requested.
Here is the Standard Operating Procedure.

Official Service Rules & Functionality (from Web Search):
- Yes, my research into the official
ebr.org
website provides the following rules and service descriptions. This model is based on applying these specific, official functions. - The rules state: “The European Business Registry (EBR) is a network of Business Registers of European countries… EBR provides easy access to European company information online, fresh from the source – the national Business Register… The information services available through the EBR network of distributors include, among others, basic company information (name, address, registered number, legal form) and company profiles… The availability of company reports and other documents differs from country to country… It is also possible to order original documents, such as certified excerpts from the register and copies of statutes.”

- Standard Model for Application to Cocoo Cases:
This SOP outlines the standard process for using the premium EBR service to gain a decisive informational advantage in any case involving a European corporate adversary.
- Standard Action based on Rule 1: “Purchase of Full Company Profiles”
- Model Application: In the initial phase of any case where the adversary is a European corporate entity, it is Cocoo’s standard procedure to use the EBR to purchase the most comprehensive “Company Profile” available. This applies to the primary target company and any parent or affiliated entities, particularly those located in jurisdictions known for corporate complexity like Luxembourg or Cyprus. This action is our primary tool for deep-dive due diligence, allowing us to uncover financial data, director histories, and other details not available in free searches.
- Standard Action based on Rule 2: “Analysis of Financial & Director Information”
- Model Application: All financial data and director information obtained from the purchased EBR reports will be immediately provided to Cocoo’s designated forensic accounting and intelligence partners. The standard objective is to identify financial vulnerabilities (e.g., high debt leverage, pending insolvency actions, significant charges on assets) and map the full network of the adversary’s directors, past and present. The discovery of such vulnerabilities will be flagged as a key point of leverage for our mediation strategy.
- Standard Action based on Rule 3: “Procurement of Officially Certified Documents”
- Model Application: For any case that is designated as “High-Stakes” or is proceeding towards formal litigation, arbitration, or a critical mediation, it is Cocoo’s standard procedure to use the EBR to order officially certified (
apostilled
) copies of the adversary’s key corporate documents. - At a minimum, this will include the current Articles of Association and a Certificate of Good Standing. This action is a core part of our evidence management protocol. It ensures the evidence we hold is legally admissible in most international forums without dispute, thereby neutralizing any attempt by the opposition to challenge the authenticity of our documentation.

Integration with Cocoo’s Core Objectives (Mediation & Tendering):
- Standard Leverage for Mediation:
- The intelligence gathered via this SOP provides a significant tactical advantage. Our standard approach in any mediation is to deploy information discovered from these premium reports at a critical moment. Presenting a certified document that reveals a previously unknown financial vulnerability or corporate complexity demonstrates a superior level of preparation that can destabilize an opponent’s negotiating position and create a strong incentive for them to settle on our terms.
- Standard Support for Tendering:
- The detailed, official financial data procured through this service is a standard input for our own tender-building process. It allows our financial modeling team to create proposals that are not based on public estimates but on a deep, factual analysis of the incumbent’s real-world operational and financial structure.
- Our standard tender documentation will include the following statement to enhance credibility: “Our financial projections are based on a detailed analysis of the incumbent’s official corporate and financial records, as procured via the European Business Registry, ensuring our proposal is both competitive and grounded in fact.”
