What's at stake in Financial Services hiring.

The financial services sector is one of the most heavily regulated industries for background screening. FINRA, the SEC, and the FDIC all impose specific screening requirements, and violations carry significant penalties. Beyond compliance, the industry faces a persistent threat of internal fraud — employees with access to client funds, sensitive data, or trading systems represent a substantial risk if their financial history and criminal background are not thoroughly vetted. The reputational stakes are uniquely high: a single incident of employee misconduct can trigger regulatory investigations, class-action litigation, and client flight that takes years to recover from.


How we solve it.

Our financial services screening packages are designed around the specific requirements of FINRA, FDIC Section 19, and state insurance licensing authorities. We run employment credit reports, FINRA BrokerCheck searches, global watchlist screenings, and comprehensive criminal searches — all in a single coordinated workflow. Our compliance team has deep expertise in financial sector regulations, and our documentation trail is built to withstand regulatory scrutiny. We deliver results fast enough to keep your hiring competitive without ever sacrificing the thoroughness your regulators demand.
