Nigeria Patriot Act
Important information about procedures for opening or changing an account with
Ujoelen Microfinance Bank
Section 116 of the Nigeria Patriot Act requires all financial institutions to
obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an
account or changes an existing account. This federal requirement applies to all
new customer and current customers. This information is used to assist the
Nigerian government in the fight against the funding of terrorism and
money-laundering activities.
What this means to you: when you open an account or change an existing account,
we will ask each person for their name, physical address, mailing address, date
of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify them. We will ask
to see each person's driver's license and other identifying documents and copy
or record information from each of them. |
