Demonstrate assurance for your buyers

Complete one in-depth pooled audit for all your FSQS buyers.

Does this sound familiar?

Completing time-consuming and laborious reviews for your customers.

Frequent requests for information from multiple customers from multiple directions.

Hundreds of hours wasted on facilitating, that could be spent on vital projects for your business.

Having to gather the same information over and over again, in different formats, just to do it all again next year.

What if there was a different way?

Introducing Stage 3

Building on the information supplied in Stages 1 and 2, it’s an in-depth pooled audit that can be shared with all your FSQS buyers.

You complete one review with our dedicated team, we’ll then build the report and then you can decide who to share it with.

And in the spirit of removing admin duplication, Stage 3 acknowledges already completed external assessments such as ISO 27001 and SOC2, reducing the burden even further.

The Stage 3 Pooled Audit has been developed by the industry, for the industry, ensuring the scope is aligned to the risk topics that matter the most to financial services companies, reducing the need for further questions.
