A facility to deal in the live foreign currency market through CorporateFX, is something that brings benefits but not obligation. As a registered Money Services Business and in accordance with the UK Money Laundering Regulations, we have a comprehensive but structured process for the opening documentation as follows:

The information contained forms the contract under which the parties operate and must be signed by all authorised signatories on behalf of the client.

The COMPLIANCE FORM

This document sets out to ensure that clients understand the nature of the transactions they are considering and the costs and restrictions that apply. It needs to be digested and is best completed following/during a conversation with a member of CorporateFX’s dealing team.

In line with UK Money Laundering regulations and Best Practice, we require two forms of ID from our clients, these are as follows:

A clear copy of a current Passport OR picture Driving Licence (Attested by a responsible professional, confirming that "the original document has been seen" and then adding their name, signature and address.

Following receipt of the completed documents, a member of the dealing team will contact you to confirm that your currency trading facility is open, or to discuss any points that need addressing prior to that time. Once these formalities have been dealt with we will confirm your client code, which should be used as your individual reference point, whenever you make contact with CorporateFX.
