Financial Intelligence Centre Act (FICA): FICA residential address
The provision and verification of a residential address: The obligation to provide an
address and the need for such to be verified appears to have been the chosen
safeguard against identity fraud.
The value of providing a residential address for purposes of identifying a customer has
been questioned. De Koker argues that the negative impact of residential address
verification increases as a result of the high level of internal migration.
In South Africa, the verification of a client’s address has presented certain difficulties,
particularly with low-income individuals. The drafters of the FICA and its regulations
were aware of the fact that individuals who lived in informal settlements and rural
areas could face problems in verifying their residential address.
Compare the different tiers of banks available in South Africa:
First Tier banks:
Commercial bank: is a financial institution that provides banking services for their
customers, including businesses, organisations and individuals.
Banking services include the offering of current, deposit and savings accounts, as well
as providing loans to their customers.
Investment bank: is a financial institution that assists individuals, companies and
governments in raising capital by underwriting and/or acting as the client’s agent in the
issuance of securities.
