Quality in financial services

SQS certifies quality management in companies that provide financial services.

Banking secrecy, money laundering, data protection, corporate governance: These and other topics are frequently the reason why banks and other institutions in the financial services industry are the focus of public attention. To prevent violations and conflicts with internal or external rules or statutory provisions, care must be taken to ensure that well-defined processes are used. SQS, with its experts and cross-industry expertise, is an ideal partner for the continuous monitoring and improvement of these processes. The ultimate goal is always to increase the confidence of customers, partners, investors, and, not least, the public - which are essential in the financial sector for sustainable success.

Core topic - risk management

ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 14001 (environmental management system) provide an excellent base for the design and implementation of a process-oriented and risk-based system. These standards are compatible with other system standards and requirements. The auditing of risk management systems in line with the ONR 49000 series plays a special role. Clients that use this service know their business risks and demonstrate to all stakeholders that they have effective management systems.

Excellence for top management

Together with the Management AG board, SQS has the Best Board Practice^® label (certification procedure/one-time assessment) for excellent corporate governance. Corporate governance is of increasing importance for businesses and organisations - this applies in particular to banks and other businesses that provide financial services. With the Best Board Practice^®label, certified institutions can demonstrate that their top governing bodies carry out their work independently, professionally and comprehensively, thus ensuring that an efficient and effective command and control structure is implemented.
