Federal regulation requires certain financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information about the beneficial owners of certain legal entity customers. Legal entities can be abused to disguise involvement in terrorist financing, money laundering, tax evasion, corruption, fraud, and other financial crimes. Requiring the disclosure of key individuals who own or control a legal entity (i.e., the beneficial owners) helps law enforcement investigate and prosecute these crimes.
In this section, please enter details about the primary owner or control officer. Control officer has significant control or authority over the business and yet need not be an owner (for example CEO with 0 % ownership).
