Financial Service Document Shredding

The destruction of secure documents is a real important part of every company’s security. Especially those companies who are dealing with a large amount of sensitive data. By law, it is required that all of the financial documents must be destroyed properly once there is no longer a need for them. 

This especially applies to the following businesses:
​
  • Building Societies
  • Investment Firms
  • Insurance Providers
  • Banks
Any other financial organisation will have to follow the same procedures. Those listed above are just the most reoccurring businesses we deal with in regards to the financial paper shredding service.
​
All of the clients data has to be used and stored in line with the UK privacy legislation. The business owner has a duty of care to his clients making sure he handles their personal information correctly.  In the financial sector the documents that often need the most attention are:

  • Bank Statements
  • Card Information
  • Transaction Details

By investing a small amount of money in a paper shredding company you can rest assure your documents are being destroyed efficiently. The shredding of the sensitive financial documents does not only protect the information of customers. It also protects the company as you comply with the Data protection act.
​
Having the documents professionally destroyed will take away any chance of a data breach occurring. Therefore avoiding any legal court cases and potential fines that come along with the breach of this legislation. It does not only damage the organisations bank balance it diminishes the trust that you had previously created with the customer. In the worst case scenario, it could make the news then damaging the reputation of the business for a longer period of time.
