Credit check
As a leading provider of screening checks for the financial services sector, we understand the importance of minimising potential risks often associated with financial mismanagement.
We make it our mission to protect your business and are experts in facilitating credit checks with rapid return rates.
Standard Credit Check
Our robust reports clearly highlight any missed payments, defaults, reveal any county court judgments (CCJs), bankruptcies, individual voluntary arrangements (IVAs), decrees and sequestration orders for the job applicant (including the status of them).
Typically the credit check assesses information from the last six years - the maximum time county court judgments (CCJs) remain publicly available.
CAIS database
We can also process a further check using CAIS data (where permitted) allowing us to review candidates full financial history including current accounts, credit cards, secured and unsecured debt, defaults and other measures of financial probity.
