HBTF USAPatriot Act Certification:
Pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act and final rules issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, a U.S. bank or a U.S. broker-dealer in securities (a "Covered Financial Institution") is required to obtain certain information from any "Foreign Bank" that maintains a correspondent account with it.
As permitted by the final rules, The Housing Bank for Trade & Finance "HBTF", has prepared a Global Certificate for use by any financial institution that believes it requires a USA PATRIOT Act Certificate from any of HBTF members, for example, an overseas branch of HBTF.
Please use this Certificate in preference to requesting individual HBTF members to complete a separate Certificate. If the particular HBTF member that maintains a correspondent account with your institution is not listed in our Certificate, or if you have any questions with regard to this Certificate, please advise us by e-mailing Our Compliance Center at :-jal-doqah@hbtf.com.jo ORcompliance@hbtf.com.jo
