Plimsoll refers to Samuel Plimsoll, best known for introducing a safe loading line for merchant ships in the 19th century.
The safe loading line inspired the founder of Plimsoll to establish a similar method to give early warning signs of financial danger within a company in any market sector.
This resulted in the creation of a standardised model of industry reports and company analysis designed to provide at-a-glance diagnosis of the well-being of any company nationally, internationally or globally.
