On 26 October, 2001, President George W. Bush signed into law the USA PATRIOT Act.
Pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act and final rules issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, financial institutions operating in the United States are required to obtain certain information from any "Foreign Bank" that maintains a correspondent account with it in the U.S. Under the final rules, this information is collected through a certification process.
