Notice to Clients
Important Information You Need to Know About Opening a New Account:
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal
law requires financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each
person who opens an account.
This Notice answers some questions about your firm’s Customer Identification Program.
What types of information will I need to provide?
When you open an account, your firm is required to collect information such as the following
from you:
- Date of birth
- Address
- Identification number:
- US Citizen: taxpayer identification number (social security number or employer
identification number) - Non-U.S. Citizen: taxpayer identification number, passport number, and country of
issuance, alien identification card number, or government-issued identification showing
nationality, residence, and a photograph of yourself. - You may also need to show your driver’s license or other identifying documents.
- A corporation, partnership, trust or other legal entity may need to provide other
information, such as its principal place of business, local office, employer identification
number, certified articles of incorporation, government-issued business license, a
partnership agreement, or a trust agreement.
U.S. Department of the Treasury, Securities and Exchange Commission, FINRA, and the New
York Stock Exchange rules already require you to provide most of this information. These rules
also may require you to provide additional information, such as your net worth, annual income,
occupation, employment information, investment experience and objectives, and risk tolerance.
What happens if I don’t provide the information requested or my identity can’t be
verified?
Your firm may not be able to open an account or carry out transactions for you. If your firm has
already opened an account for you, they may have to close it.
We thank you for your patience and hope that you will support the financial industry’s efforts to
deny terrorists and money launderers access to America’s financial system.
