FSQS expands the community of Financial Services Organisations
We are pleased to see the continued growth of organisations in Financial Services taking advantage of the FSQS service, Ipswich Building Society has recently agreed to become the 38th financial services organisation using FSQS to support their supplier and third-party qualification, compliance, and risk management processes.
The FSQS community has now been joined by Ipswich Building Society who have recently agreed to become the 38th organisation to make use of FSQS.
The concept of FSQS is a collaborative system where suppliers complete and maintain a single profile which is shared by their major customers in the financial services sector, to reduce the duplication of effort and cost associated with qualification and compliance. We are delighted that this vision continues to be realised as more financial services organisations join FSQS, as there are now thirty-eight Banks, Building Societies, and Insurance financial services organisations within the FSQS community of purchasers.
What are the benefits of the FSQS Community?
FSQS helps introduce responsible business practices and is currently used by 37 Banks Building and Insurance companies:
| Lloyds Banking Group Metro Bank Santander TSB Shawbrook Bank Aldermore Bank Clydesdale Bank Yorkshire Bank Arbuthnot Latham Nationwide Building Society Weatherbys AIB LV Financial Services |
The Bank of England |
Schroders |
We are pleased to welcome this new Buying organisation to the FSQS community and to congratulate Helios FSQS in gaining greater visibility in the financial sector of the FSQS system.
With the decisions of these organisations joining the FSQS Community it should result in even greater reductions in duplication of time and effort, as the same profile of information is shared and used for qualification and compliance by all banks, building societies and insurers using FSQS. The principle of this community approach is that the benefits increase each time another bank or major financial services organisation joins the FSQS Community. 
Please visit Hellios services for more details.
What information is shared in the FSQS Community?
The vast majority of information collected by FSQS relates to the suppliers company and its policies and procedures, plus the products and services which are supplied. Some of the questions asked are specific to a particular customer and where there are answers to questions that have been provided, which are deemed to be specific to a particular customer, this data will only be shared with the applicable customer and will not be shared with any other bank or financial services organisation or that may join FSQS in future.
