Why do they need my personal data?
On May 11, 2018, the U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) published its Customer Due Diligence Requirements for Financial Institutions, which includes an important new requirement to identify and verify the identity of beneficial owners of legal entity customers (a.k.a. the “Beneficial Owner Final Rule”), which was effective as of July 11, 2016. We are following the requirement of the USA PATRIOT Act, the Card Schemes (Visa, MC, Amex, and Discover), and per our sponsor bank - Wells Fargo.
