In some situations, setting tableView.backgroundColor doesn't work and the background of the tableView is always white. I came across this issue when using a UITableView within a custom UIView and solved it with this:

public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplay cell: UITableViewCell, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {        
    tableView.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
}
