Invesco

[SteveD]

My wife and I have a small investment in Emerging Markets with Invesco, Dublin. We have had this since 1994. We have just received letters from Invesco requesting documentary evidence proving that we are who we say we are. The documents required for each of us are: - One current photograpic proof of formal identification bearing both photograph and signature of holder (driving Licence, Passport or National Identity Card). - Two individual proofs of residential address (eg Utility Bill or bank Statement) bearing full name and residential address and issued within the last three months. Photocopies of the above will only be accepted if they are signed by a Solicitor, Notary Public, a Public Officer (Police or Embassy), a Chartered/Certified Accountant or a Regulated Financial Institution). Certification by a doctor or clergyman is not accepted. The purpose of all this is stated to be to ensure that Invesco's Anti-Money Laundering records are up to date. Is this request normal practice, Is it reasonable?

Yes, and yes.

Your bank should do it without charge.
