Mike Shaw, COO, Mocoh
By implementing Check, Mocoh has achieved its primary objectives of bringing greater consistency, accuracy and transparency to the onboarding and renewal process.
01/ Time taken to onboard a client has improved greatly, driven by a reduction in manual and repetitive steps.
02/ Email traffic has reduced significantly, and interactions are more easily followed and viewed because counter party communication is managed entirely on platform.
03/ Senior management has gained visibility on each counterparty across the business, as the data from Check supports monthly reporting requirements.
04/ All new counterparty organisations and individuals are screened using a third-party data provider integrated directly with theCheck API.
“Check is not only used to request and find information, we also use it to store all the information we have on our counterparties – it’s our single source of truth for reporting purposes.” “It is also great for accessing historical information, because rather than going back through emails and searching for documents, we now have everything in one place.“
