To Our Clients and Potential Clients
In accordance with Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act of 2002, which requires Steencore Group to help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Steencore Group is required to obtain basic identifying information from you and verify that information when you open a new account.
This means Steencore staff will ask you for some basic information to help us identify you. Steencore staff will also ask to see documents identifying you such as a social security card, driving licence, passport, and/or some other government-issued document.
In some cases, identification will be requested for those individuals conducting business with Steencore Group prior to the effective date of the member identification requirements. This is because original documentation was not obtained with the opening of the account or Steencore Group is unable to form a reasonable belief that it knows the true identity of the existing account holder.
In all cases, the protection of our member’s identity and confidentiality is Steencore's pledge to you. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we all do our part in complying with the new account identification procedures required by the federal USA Patriot Act of 2001.
Prior to assigning any new client account, we must perform our due diligence in connection with Steencore's "Know Your Customer Procedures".
Respectfully,
The Board of Directors, Staff and Members of Steencore.
Under Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act, Steencore is required to verify the identities of all individuals applying for membership or opening new accounts or services. Depending on the type of account, additional documentation may be necessary. Moreover, existing members may be asked to provide further information when requesting a new product or service.
In compliance with the Act, Steencore is obligated to retain records of all documents used for identity verification for at least five years after an account is closed. We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of all information collected from our members, in line with our Privacy & Security Policy.
