Onfido, the global identity verification and authentication provider, has joined The Investing and Saving Alliance (TISA), to help drive its Digital ID programme, promoting the use of reusable identity. Onfido is the latest member to join TISA following its rapid expansion of the Digital ID scheme, which now counts Barclays, Signicat, OneSpan and Daon as members.
TISA has become the pre-eminent financial services membership firm focused on digital consumer policy and industry infrastructure developments. TISA’s Digital ID work will be supported by Onfido, who will provide its expertise in digital identity verification to help make it a success.
“We are delighted to join TISA. Its vision to create a reusable digital ID that meets all relevant regulatory requirements, such as Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and that helps consumers securely prove their identity to UK Financial Services is admirable. It is an excellent initiative which will drive powerful innovation and help reduce compliance costs in the sector.”
