Compass Business Finance has joined Cifas, a UK fraud prevention service, to help negate the growing and increasingly sophisticated threat of fraud and financial crime, the business finance company said in a press release.

Since 1988, Cifas has helped its members and customers protect themselves from billions of pounds worth of fraud losses.
Mark Nelson, director of Compass Business Finance said, “Fraud is becoming increasingly prevalent, and we believe, as does Cifas, that effective communication and collaboration is the way to push back against the perpetrators of this type of crime.”
“Our customers will be checked against the NFD, however, this is an entirely internal process and will not impact the ease or speed of delivery that we are known for providing. Having open and honest relationships with our customers is vital to us, and we’re confident that joining Cifas will help give further protection to everyone.”
