As a fintech company, we're subject to strict compliance and audit requirements, so having everything tracked in one central platform isn't a nice-to-have, it’s an essential requirement.

Build for the scrutiny that comes with financial services hiring

In financial services, employees don’t just access systems. They can move money, approve payments, access customer data and make decisions on your behalf.

From criminal and credit history to sanctions, watchlists and directorships, Veremark gives you the evidence to make confident decisions and demonstrate duty of care.

And as roles and responsibilities change, re-screening helps you maintain that confidence beyond day one.

candidate experience

The candidate experience now is the difference between night and day. It's so easy to do - a process that works for the candidate as they only have to provide information once. We're now often contacted by people saying 'I've never had an experience like that'.

FAQs

Can employees be rescreened after they start?

Yes. Veremark offers automated employee rescreening. Employers can determine which roles should be rescreened, which checks should be repeated and how frequently, based on their policies and applicable requirements.

Can Veremark support screening for regulated roles?

Yes. Veremark offers checks that may be relevant to regulated financial-services roles, including professional-qualification, financial-regulation, adverse-financial-history, sanctions and criminal-record checks. The exact requirements depend on the role and jurisdiction, so employers should confirm the applicable regulatory standard before ordering checks.

Why are background checks important for finance and FinTech businesses?

Financial-services roles can involve regulated responsibilities and access to sensitive financial information or systems. Background screening helps employers verify information relevant to the role and apply a documented hiring process. The checks selected should be proportionate and aligned with the requirements of the relevant market.

Which background checks do finance and FinTech businesses need?

The appropriate checks depend on the role, jurisdiction and regulatory requirements. Veremark's finance and FinTech page highlights right-to-work, criminal-record, adverse-financial-history, professional-qualification, financial-regulation and reference checks. UK-specific options such as CIFAS and Fit and Proper checks may also be relevant for eligible roles.

Can Veremark integrate with our ATS or HR platform?

Yes. Veremark’s API allows background checks to be requested through an existing hiring platform, with status updates and results returned through the integration. Veremark also offers direct integrations with selected hiring platforms, including Greenhouse.

Can Veremark support international hiring?

Yes. Veremark currently provides background-screening services in more than 195 countries. The availability of academic, criminal, employment, financial and identity checks varies by country, and some checks may have local limitations.

Can background checks be completed online?

Yes. Veremark offers online background checks through its digital platform. Employers can request checks, monitor the progress of individual checks and access completed reports from the Veremark dashboard.

How long do background checks take?

Turnaround times depend on the type of check and the country in which it is conducted. Some checks rely on responses from employers, educational institutions, government authorities or other official sources. Most background checks are completed within 15 business days after all required candidate information has been received. In markets with limited digital infrastructure or slower third-party responses, checks may take up to 20 business days or longer. Clients can monitor the progress of individual checks through the Veremark dashboard.
