Fremdwording

German to English Bus/Financial Insurance
1. Risikoprüfung anhand der Unterlagen
2. Ggf. Fremdwording prüfen

Part of the description of processes in an insurance company of how to process new policies. No other clues I'm afraid. Comes after collecting and entering all the data and before deciding whether to accept the policy or not. International company, if that is relevant.

use of foreign words

"if necessary check for use of foreign words" is the entire number 2 sentence.
And well they should look out for foreign-word expressons of which Fremdwording is a typical example itself.
