USA Patriot Act
To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account or invests in a private offering.

What this means for you: when you opened your account or invested in a private offering, we asked for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that allowed us to identify you. We may have also asked to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents. We have also done an OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets) search on you.
