Credit Checking

Why would being a discharged bankrupt prevent you from working in a bank unless it was a regulated "Approved Person" position?

Just been asked if I have any blackmarks on my credit record - if so then no banking contract for me!! My current credit record with Experian, Equifax is good - all squeaky clean but I am a discharged bankrupt from 15 years back that does not appear anywhere I can find.
Any bod know if banks, agencies look in sources other than public ones?
Is my secret safe?
Thanks

Insolvency and bankruptcy data are kept in the London/Edinburgh/Belfast Gazettes in perpetuity and cannot be erased. I believe this is because capitalist relations between the rich and poor are defined by debt and bankruptcy subverts that status quo. Therefore you are regarded as subversive.
