The small print - money laundering regulations

Under money laundering regulations and best practice, we ask all new individual clients, who have not previously supplied such evidence, to provide proof of their identity and current address

You will need to provide original documents, so that we can make copies and certify that we have seen the originals.  The copies are then held on file for regulatory and legal purposes.

If you do not have sufficient proof of identity and address, please inform the person dealing with your case at the initial meeting or otherwise contact us should you believe there might be a delay in providing documents.

The following documents are suitable forms of evidence of identify and address.
