The following person(s) are authorized to book deals with, negotiate and conclude the terms of such deals, and to instruct SHIFT to transact foreign exchange transactions for the Applicant as to its account with SHIFT . SHIFT is required (under section 4.3 of FINTRAC’s Record Keeping and Client Identification Requirements for Foreign Exchange Dealers Guideline) to confirm the identity of any client’s employee who carries out a transaction on behalf of the client. Once this information is obtained and confirmed any further trades requested by that employee will not require them to confirm their identification again. This identification is required for any trade of $3,000 CAD or greater.
