I read the definition of 信用:

> 人の言動や物事を間違いないとして，受け入れること

I have looked around a bit and found [What does verb+とする
mean?](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/34137/what-does-
verb%e3%81%a8%e3%81%99%e3%82%8b-mean) but it only covers "dictionary verb form
+ とする"

This one is after a negative «ない», so I wonder if they are different.

So far I understand the sentence as «to accept the word and «thing» of a
person and do so with no doubts».

question
grammar
What function does として have in this sentence
As the comment points out, this is the compound particle として, meaning
something like "assume". Here is the entry given by A Dictionary of
Intermediate Japanese Grammar, page 518:

Page 519:

So here it means something like "to take the speech and conduct or other
things **as the truth** and accept it"
