Why do we need information on members of the board of directors?
We as a bank have a statutory obligation to know our customers. Legislation is aimed at preventing money laundering and preventing financial international crime.
It’s therefore important for the bank to have up-to-date KYC information on your association.
When does the bank need to review the minutes before approving a change?
If the association applies, for example, for a loan or buy investment products, we’ll need the minutes of the meeting of the association’s board of directors to make the changes. The changes to be made must be explicitly mentioned in the minutes.
Please also check the signatures on the minutes: if the minutes are required, they must be signed by the chair of the meeting and two examiners of the minutes.
No minutes are required for matters related to normal payment transactions, such as changes to access rights, in bank connection authorisation, card application and notification of card spending and withdrawal limits.
