New Rules for Business Accounts
Effective May 11, 2018 new rules under the Bank Secrecy Act will aid the government in the fight against crimes to evade financial measures which have been designed to combat terrorism and other national security threats.
Each time an account is opened for a covered legal entity (includes corporations, limited liability companies, and other entities created by the filing of a public document with a Secretary of State or similar office) we are required to ask for identifying information such as name, address, date of birth, and social security numbers as well as identification documents. Identifying information is collected for:
- Each individual who directly, or indirectly, owns 25% or more of the equity interest of a legal entity
- A single individual with significant responsibility to control, manage or direct a legal entity
If you are opening an account on behalf of a legal entity you will be required to provide the appropriate documentation and to certify that this information is true and accurate to the best of your knowledge. For more information please visit the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s (FinCEN) website.
