The German Institute of Quality and Finance (Itqf) belongs to the publishing group BurdaVerlag, leader of quality surveys in Europe. He has been conducting market surveys for over 20 years aimed at analyzing the economic and qualitative aspect of companies operating in strategic sectors of the life of a country: the German health system, work, electronics, banking, insurance, distribution, utilities, health and leisure.
The Institute collects and analyzes quality information from awide variety of recognized sources evaluating thousands of businesses, products and services every year. To do this, it makes use of a specialized team of researchers and, often, also of qualified partners such as statistical centers, research institutes, universities, telecommunications engineers, to carry out detailed analyzes. His investigations are absolutely objective, impartial and not sponsored, in any way, by the people and companies involved in the studies. Professionalism and over ten years of experience have made the Institute the number one in Europe for investigations and quality seals. Thanks to aexclusive collaboration with the Republic, his studies are also published in Italy, a country where he has been present since 2013 with the aim of creating guidance for consumers and making markets more transparent.
The first sector that the Institute put under the magnifying glass in Italy was Motor TPL, at the time a very complicated and expensive product in our country. Over the years, his investigations have awarded to the best competitors of the sector, helping to better target consumers.
In all the analyzes carried out by the Institute, the method used is that of impartial comparison of products, services and companies. Comparison that is carried out through different scientific methods, for example a online survey using the Cawi method, carried out together with the ServiceValue Institute. After each investigation, the German Institute awards the seals of quality to companies that offer the best and most competitive service in the respective sectors analyzed. The seals, also known as “Blue stamps”, they can be used by companies in any communication tool to increase their credibility because they have become a guarantee of quality for consumers and success for companies.
The awards amplify visibility and strengthen the relationship with customers, inspire trust and promote company business. Quality seals can be purchased in the form of annual licenses by the companies that win the analyzes of the Institute. The awards guide consumers in their purchasing choices towards the best products and services: In fact, 8 out of 10 Italians believe the presence of an independent certification is important.
