We are often asked why we use these strict rules for customer documents (mainly from Far Eastern countries) as other brokers often accept account openings with ID cards only. Our answer: Brokerage means dealing with money of customers - this involves responsibility, seriousity and absolute reliability as it should be standard in financial business. Customers ask us for security of their funds, if we are a serious broker and other important questions. It is of outmost importance for us that we follow international established rules for identifying customers in financial business. The business practices of other Brokers cannot be a guideline for our business. Some of the biggest brokers are already sued by their regulation authorities for having violated these international rules. We are not able to make local agreements for documentation.
