Pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act and final rules issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, a U.S. bank or a U.S. broker-dealer in securities (a "Covered Financial Institution") is required to obtain certain information from any "Foreign Bank" that maintains a correspondent account with it.
As permitted by the final rules, ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ has prepared a Global Certification for use by any financial institution that believes it requires a USA PATRIOT?Act Certification from a ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ entity.
Please use this Certification instead of asking an individual ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ entity to complete a separate Certification form. If the particular ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ entity that maintains a correspondent account with your institution is not listed in our Certification, or if you have any questions with regard to this Certification, please contact the ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ entity in question.
