WebID enhances AML-regulation compliant on-line identification with additional interfaces for credit granting processes
Berlin, April 7th, 2014 – WebID Solutions GmbH, a leading provider of on-line identification services, is enhancing the interfaces of “WebID Identify Personal” and “WebID Identify Business” product lines. Special credit granting-related requirements of the financial services industry can now be fulfilled. By doing so, the company is completing its service offering surrounding on-line identification while yet again pushing security standards to new, industry-leading levels.
“We are delighted to have been part of this development together with our clients who can now use these extensions seamlessly with their existing credit granting processes”, says Frank S. Jorga, Head of Legal & Compliance, WebID Solutions GmbH.
Within the German regulatory framework, the identification of a borrower or contractual partner is regulated by Section 3 (1) no. 1 in conjunction with Section 4 (1), (3) no. 1 and (4) no. 1 of GwG (German anti-money-laundering legislation). All parts of WebID’s identification process are fully compliant with these regulatory requirements. Compliance has been confirmed in writing by all relevant regulatory bodies.
“With our new set of extensions, WebID is uniquely positioned to help our clients with all identification requirements at any stage of the credit granting process”, adds Franz Thomas Fuerst, Managing Director.
These interface extensions have been available since March 2014 and can be implemented for financial services institutions with minimal effort.
