Why is electronic signature valid in the financial sector?

Electronic signature is built on a European legal framework that gives it evidentiary value when it allows the signer to be identified, ensures document integrity and establishes a reliable link between the person and the signed document.

In the financial sector, it can be used to formalise credit contracts, payment mandates or subscriptions, subject to adapting the signature level to the degree of risk and regulatory obligations.

Signature levels (simple, advanced, qualified) allow the security level to be adjusted to the financial stakes involved.

Secure your operations against document fraud

Finance players are particularly exposed to identity fraud and document fraud risks. Electronic signature, combined with enhanced authentication and identity verification mechanisms, strengthens transaction reliability and limits legal risks.
