Hi Martin,
I'm verifying with the KYC team that the provided documents and the
information below fulfills all of the requirements. We have this account set
as one of the highest priorities in our pipeline, so operational setups will
be focused on as soon as this piece is settled.
Thanks,
Zack

Zack,
See attached for what Nina Tona sent in the last email in this chain and I
am adding the Formation Document. This should complete everything you asked
for in your email from March 13.
We have a pending trade with the client in credit derivatives next week. Can
you please put this as a priority?
Source of Wealth:
The source of wealth is Jeffrey Epstein as the sole shareholder. Jeffery
Epstein began his financial career in 1976 as an options trader at Bear
Stearns and became a partner in 1980. In 1982, Epstein founded his own
financial management firm, J. Epstein & Co., managing the assets of clients
with more than a billion in net worth. In 1996, Epstein changed the name of
his firm to The Financial Trust Company and based it on the island of St.
Thomas in the US Virgin Islands, which merged into Southern Financial LLC.
All of his clients were anonymous except for the very wealthy businessman
Leslie Wexner. His wealth has come from his days at Bear Stearns and his
financial management firms.

Hi Martin,
I just received the finalized KYC review yesterday. Even though the entity
is opened for other products, it is outside of its KYC review date and is
triggering a high risk rating. In order to approve the account, the team
will need the following:
Ownership - Broken down to 10% (Org chart with %'s of ownership
or confirmation from Senior Client Rep explaining the ownership breakdown)
Legal Reps — Identify and Verify
UBO's - Identify and Verify

Zack,
Please go ahead and set them up for credit derivatives as well as
convertible bonds. The credit derivatives is a priority and rather urgent.
Client is ready to trade.
Thanks

Hi Xavier,
Nothing else is needed from your end at the moment. I will send this request
to the KYC team for review and then setup. Can you confirm Credit
Derivatives is the only necessary extension? I know Convertible Bonds were
also in the discussion.
I see the BR 1007494283 set up for a decent amount of products already. See
below.

Jane — NCA is still in progress. Rita and her team are working on it. They
stopped the NCA once they found out it was in red. Jitan will inform them
now to complete the NCA.
@Jitan — Please inform Rita to continue with the NCA.

Hi Monika,
This was a WM US retain from the Offboarding Clearing House process, that
currently reflects in the overall CIB file colour (not coverage colour).
Hence green.
Nina — was NCA completed? We can't see it reflected in dbCAR (still appears
delinquent) but I know that is part of the broader conversation that Julia
is having with Paul Chapman.
Thanks
Jane

Hi Xavier
The GB adoption location is Red across all business but this is CIB Green
for the US adoption location — as one of the businesses has asked to retain
this. @Jane please confirm which business asked to retain?
In these instances, the GM products will not be offboarded if another
business has asked to retain and the KYC/ACO responsibility sits with that
business.
However, please also be aware that this is a High Risk client which is KYC
deficient and was last reviewed in 2015.
Please let me know if any other questions.
Kind regards,

Ian, thanks for the call.
So Rita who is the Case Manager seems to suggest that she sees Southern
Financial Red and therefore we cannot extend it to Credit Derivatives, while
we think we should see this Green from a KCP perspective.
Bu you explain to me that the Red might be only when it comes to your ICG
world.
Can you pls clarify if this client is Red for everyone including KCP and if
so how do we turn it Green, as discussed this is an example of a KCP
Americas account that is ACOed by us, in this case myself.
Thanks
