Restrictions on movement put in place to stop the spread of coronavirus means firms that usually rely on paper-based ID checks are facing huge business disruption.
Under COVID-19 social distancing rules, prospective clients are no longer able to present their documents in person, while sending them through the post brings a whole new set of issues.
Not only is it now almost impossible to get to a post office under the new rules, but sending physical documents also risks contamination. And with so many people now working from home, there is the added risk associated with sending sensitive personal data to the home addresses of staff.
Electronic verification (EV) solves all these issues, enabling regulated firms to carry on serving clients without any further disruption.
With our EV platform, no documents are required, and ID checks can be carried out remotely, regardless of location, meaning home working is no longer a barrier to ‘business as usual’.
