What Kind Of Background Check Does FINRA Do?
FINRA often requires employees of firms to undergo a criminal background check. Sometimes even employees who are not involved in investment decisions need to be fact-checked as well. A background check for FINRA is essentially a traditional FBI Background Check with the results being entered into Central Registration Depository (CRD).
PrintScan is an approved fingerprint channeler to handle all of both inks fingerprinting on FINRA fingerprint cards in addition to electronic fingerprinting submissions (EFS) directly to FINRA allowing for faster results.
Because we are a certified vendor, we offer a secure connection where fingerprints can be submitted electronically. Using an electronic submission method allows for faster processing times, higher quality fingerprints, and lower FINRA fingerprint fees.
