Pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act ("the Act") and final rules issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, certain U.S. financial institutions are required to obtain information in the form of a certification from any "foreign bank" for which it maintains a "correspondent account".
In order to assist these financial institutions in satisfying their obligations, American Express has made available a Global Certification that provides the information required under the Act and final rules. Please click here to download a PDF of the American Express Global Certification.
Please use this Global Certification for each American Express business maintaining a "correspondent account" with your institution. If the particular American Express business is not listed in the Global Certification or if you have any questions, please advise us by e-mail at USAPATRIOTActcertification@aexp.com.
