AML & KYC Policy

AML & KYC Policy

You should carefully evaluate the facts in this document and whether trading in any margin trading products we offer is a sensible financial decision for you before deciding whether to trade with TrustwayTrade LTD, hereby referred to as “The Company” or not.

We only conduct business in accordance with the laws governing the fight against illegal money laundering and against the funding of terrorism in order to assure adherence to international trade standards. We have set up a Compliance department to develop Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) procedures, which are required of all employees and customers, and to monitor compliance with legal requirements and FATF recommendations. This department also sets the company’s engagement policy with anyone who plans to become a customer.

The Compliance Department makes sure that all Company operations adhere to international money laundering standards and that all customer-provided documentation are current and in compliance with all applicable legal requirements.

As our client you irrevocably agree with the following rules and undertake to observe them:

  • While you are one of our clients, you must abide by our AML and KYC regulations. The required paperwork and information should be delivered in person by you at The Company’s request. According to the Company’s sole discretion, answering the relevant KYC questionnaire may also be required. You consent and promise to abide by any Company requirements. Additionally, the company conducts extra research on clients who are citizens of countries that have been named by reliable sources as having lax AML regulations or that may pose a significant risk of corruption and crime, as well as on beneficial owners who live in the named countries and have funds coming from them.
  • Each client enters personal information during the registration process, including full name, date of birth, country of origin, and full residential address. The following documents are required to verify the personal information:
    • A valid passport that is currently in possession (displaying the first page of the domestic or foreign passport, where the photo and the signature are plain to see).

 

  • National identity card (showing both front and back pages);

 

  • Driving license which bears a photograph;

 

  • Utility bills, bank statements, and other documents containing the client’s full name and address that confirm their current permanent address. These documents should not be older than 3 months from the date of filing.
  • The Company has the authority to ask for extra copies of any documents that prove your identity or the identities of any people who are part of a corporate structure, as well as documents that prove your residence, your right to hold property, and the source of any cash. In the event that The Company has any questions, The Company also has the right to request the provision of original documents for inspection;
  • Along with collecting data from clients, the Company continues to monitor the activity of each client to identify and prevent any suspicious transactions. The company has implemented a system of automatic and manual monitoring to prevent the criminals from using company’s services.
  • The company will act in accordance with the law and inform the relevant regulatory authority of any suspicious activity if an attempt is made to carry out transactions that it suspects are associated with money laundering or other criminal activity.
  • Any client whose business the staff believes to be illegal or to involve money laundering may have their activities suspended by the company. The decision to temporarily block the suspicious client account or to end an ongoing client relationship is entirely at the control of the company.
  • Any assets that are withdrawn are exclusively transferred to your own account. Assets may not be withheld or transferred to third parties. Additionally prohibited are internal transactions within The Company’s clients’ accounts.
  • As required by applicable legislation, The Company is obligated to communicate any information about you with financial institutions and law enforcement organizations and has the legal authority to do so without first obtaining your permission. By giving The Company your approval, you authorize the Company to take these steps.
  • You agree to abide by all local, state, federal, and international laws that are designed to stop unlawful trafficking, financial fraud, money laundering, and the re-legalization of illegal cash gained. You should make every effort to avoid engaging in any illicit financial activities or transactions through The Company’s website or services, whether directly or indirectly.
  • You attest to the legitimacy of the source, ownership, and use of the assets added to your account. The Company reserves the right to conduct an internal investigation, block or close your Traders Room or any account, cancel any payment or trading order, and suspend operations if there is evidence of suspicious transactions in your account, cash replenishments from unreliable sources (for example, the data of the assets’ sender and Traders Room’s owner differs), and/or any actions with attributes of fraud (including any refunds or cancellation of payments). The Company bases its choice on the provisions of the relevant law, FATF recommendations, or accepted practices;
  • In the event that your mode of withdrawal differs from how you made your deposit, The Company has the right to ask for more information about you. If you refused to submit the further information required by the Company during the investigation, The Company also reserves the right to block your Traders Room or any other account;
  • The Company does not offer its services to individuals or businesses with addresses in countries on the FATF’s “blacklist.”
  • The Company declines to carry out any operations that, in The Company’s opinion, are questionable. The adoption of preventative measures (such as the blocking or closing of a customer’s Traders Room account or any other account) does not subject The Company to civil liability for breach of its obligations to you;
  • The Company is under no obligation to let you or anyone else know about the steps it has taken to comply with AML/CFT regulations. Additionally, The Company is not required to inform you or anyone else about any suspicions, the grounds for declining to execute your trading order, the reasons for declining to open an account, the necessity of providing any documents, etc.;
  • This agreement is merely a summary with the objective of outlining our rights and our desire to participate in the global AML initiative. Each Company, however, has its own internal AML&KYC policies and regulations, which may augment those listed in this description. Nothing in this summary should be interpreted as a rigid guideline that can’t be amended by the local AML guidelines of any company;
  • Any agreement reached between you and the Company will include this anti-money laundering and “know your customer” policy as an essential component. At the sole discretion of The Company, non-compliance with this policy may be cause for termination of the contract.
