Background check of employees for the financial sector. Employees in the banking and finance sector work with confidential information and financial resources. Accessing the customer’s sensitive information and understanding their financial data involves risk. That is why background checks on finance officials are very important.

Comply with the Financial Supervision Act with background checks

The Act on Financial Supervision (in Sweden the supervisory authority is the Financial Supervisory Authority) applies to almost the entire financial sector in Sweden and several other EU countries. Financial markets are constantly changing, and this oversight protects consumers and businesses. For example, the duty of care, criminal records (relevant crimes), credit check, and good conduct: you must be able to guarantee the quality and integrity of (potential) employees. DISA is here to help you with this.
