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 customer that opens an account.
What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for certain information that will assist us in verifying your identity, such as your name, address, date of birth and taxpayer identification number. In some cases, we may ask for additional documentation, such as a driver's license, passport or other form of governmental identification.
