4 reasons...
1) Fair pricing
Most large agencies are burdened by high overheads. To stay competitive, they use low-rate, inexperienced translators. Our proven, e-business model has a low cost base. So we can afford to hire the Porsche equivalent of a translator.
2) Quality control
All team members only work in their native language and boast certifiable expertise in their particular fields: financial, legal, marketing, etc.
3) Fast turnarounds
We meet every deadline. Simple as that.
4) Strict confidentiality
We regularly deal with highly confidential material such as unpublished annual reports of listed companies. So strict confidentiality is a part of every job we translate. For your added assurance, we will happily sign any non-disclosure / confidentiality agreement upon request. We are also happy to use PGP for all email transfers should you prefer.
