Client Identification. Prudential Securities has instituted a Client Identification Program in furtherance of its obligations under the USA Patriot Act (Act). This important federal regulation is designed to prevent, deter and, where necessary, prosecute those who seek to manipulate the U.S. financial system.
Consistent with the Act, the provisions of Prudential Securities' Client Identification Program serve to reinforce key elements of a broker-dealer's responsibility of becoming familiar with its clients. Thus, before Prudential Securities can effectively maintain and service your account, Prudential Securities must (i) collect identification information; (ii) verify that information; (iii) screen this information using certain resources, including information provided by governmental agencies; and (iv) maintain records relevant to the verification process. In addition, Prudential Securities may ask you to provide identification documents or other information. Please keep in mind that Prudential Securities will endeavor to secure this information in accordance with its privacy standards. Your assistance in meeting our obligations under the Act is part of a global effort to combat terrorism in one of the most effective ways possible, denying terrorists and others engaged in illicit activity access to our financial services network.
