CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION
Federal regulations enacted pursuant to Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT ACT require all nancial institutions to verify
the identity of every person who seeks to open an account or become a signatory on an account with the institution after
October 25, 2002. All persons are subject to the identity verication requirements even though they may be a long term
customer of and well known to the institution.
For the purpose of the regulation, an “account” includes every formal banking relationship that entails ongoing services,
dealings or transactions. Some examples are a deposit account, loan, or safe deposit box rental.
If you request to open an account or become a signatory on an account with Central One Federal Credit Union, and the
credit union has not previously veried your identity under the new regulatory requirements, documentary verication of
your identity is required. Documentary identication includes photo identication, such as a driver’s license or passport
and/or it will verify your identity through other non-documentary methods. Similar identication requirements apply to
business entities such as corporations and partnerships.
Central One Federal Credit Union is required to retain a copy of any document it
relied on to verify your identity.
