London
Eiger Trading Advisors Limited (‘Eiger’), a leading financial technology company specialising in commodity Murabaha trade facilitation and execution services, are delighted to have been awarded ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification, an internationally recognised standard that ensures their products and services meet the needs of customers through an effective quality management system.
“We consider the trust of our customers in our platform to be a critical success factor for the company and we are very proud of this achievement, “ said Stephen Openshaw, CEO of Eiger. “The certification process ensures that our risk, governance, and compliance practices meet or exceed the required controls. Achieving ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification demonstrates our ongoing commitment to protect our customers’ data as well as our continued commitment to being first in our peer group.”
ISO/IEC 27001:2013 is an information security standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the world’s largest developer of voluntary international standards, and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). Eiger’s certification was issued by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance Limited (LRQA), an independent and accredited certification body based in London, on successful completion of a formal audit process. The certification is evidence that Eiger has met rigorous international standards in ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of customer data, supplier information and Eiger’s internal data related to its electronic clinical management suite environment.
“Adhering to the industry-leading security standard and best practices makes us a better company in addition to building the confidence of our customers in our platform. Eiger operates in highly regulated industries where we must maintain compliance with government regulations and many industry standards, so we have incorporated the ISO 27001 certification process into our corporate culture,” said Christopher McGuigan, Chief Operations Officer at Eiger.
