This policy is to establish guidelines for the Company’s The Know Your Client (“KYC”) procedure for new and existing clients. These procedures apply to the Back Office and detail the processes for the Company’s KYC and due diligence procedures when accepting clients to open live trading accounts.
The KYC procedure is a requirement in order to comply with the International law provisions, including the ones designed to prevent money laundering. The following procedure should be followed unless an amendment is sent from the Compliance Department stating otherwise.
When a client applies to open an account with us we have to make sure that along with his application the following documents are received:
Natural Persons
(Passport, ID, Driving License) Passport is the best proof of ID since we can perform a World Check. In case the applicant does not have a Passport we can accept an ID or any other document which is issued by an independent and reliable source that carries the client’s photo.
On the proof of ID we need to check the following: the date of birth (the client needs to be over 18 years old) and the date of expiry (if any, as some IDs don’t have an expiry date). In addition we must also check if the document seems genuine and report to the Compliance Officer if there are any doubts.
Recent Utility Bill (up to 6 months), Bank Statement, Local Authority Tax Bill, or any other official document same with the abovementioned. In case the applicant does not have Utility Bill etc., we can accept as Proof of Residence an ID, provided it is different than the one used as Proof of ID.
In case on the proof of residence it is written a family member’s name (parents or wife/husband) we must require a Birth Certificate or Marriage Certificate to prove the relationship between them.
Mobile phone bill, Insurance Statement and Electronically generated documents are not acceptable as Proof of Residence unless exception is given by the Compliance Officer.
Note that Proof of Identification and Address must be 2 different documents.
The Proof of Signature can be any document issued by an independent and reliable source that carries the client’s photo as well – Passport, Identity Card, Driving License. The Proof of Signature can be on the Identification
