Royal Bank of Canada USA Patriot Act Certification
The USA PATRIOT Act and final rules issued by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury require Covered Financial Institutions to obtain certain
information from Foreign Banks for which they maintain correspondent accounts
in the United States.
As permitted by the final rules, instead of preparing
individual certificates for each Covered Financial Institution which maintains
a correspondent account for the Royal Bank of Canada, the Royal Bank of Canada
has executed a global certification applicable to all correspondent accounts maintained
for it by Covered Financial Institutions. As permitted further, the Royal Bank
of Canada has posted such certification on its web site so that every Covered
Financial Institution that believes it requires such certification from Royal
Bank of Canada can access it from such web site. Please access this certificate
instead of requesting from Royal Bank of Canada an individual certificate pertaining
to your Covered Financial Institution. If the specific branch or office
for which your Covered Financial Institution maintains a correspondent account
is not listed in the Appendix to the Certification, or if you have any questions,
please contact Royal Bank of Canada by e-mail at usapatriotact@rbc.com.
