Quick question regarding background verification at HSBC

If someone is applying for a role in HSBC India, does HSBC conduct a US credit check as part of the BGV process if the candidate has previously worked in the US?

Or do they only check credit history within India (like CIBIL)?

Also, if someone has a poor credit history in the US, what are the chances of that impacting the hiring decision?

Would really appreciate insights from anyone who has gone through a similar situation.

In my understanding of how the BGV worked with me it depends on the experiences you listed on the vetting form. If you listed your US experience there is a possibility they may ask you for permission to check your credit history there. I don’t personally have any experience regarding this but every single clarification they ask is only and only with whatever information you have provided on the vetting form.

14-30 days is most common but some people have experienced 4-6 weeks too.
