Note on submitting stakeholders

For each association, the same individual can hold multiple stakeholder roles. For example, in an association, a person may be both a public officer and a shareholder. We strongly recommend submitting an individual in only one stakeholder role. If there is a specific role that must be included (i.e., is required), such as public officer, submit the individual in that role to avoid running multiple KYCs (identity verifications) for the same person within a single KYB, which would be redundant. This is a cost-effective approach. For instance, if John ok Citizen is both a public officer and shareholder of MY ASSOCIATION, submit John ok Citizen as a public officer, as this role is required to be submitted, rather than as both. This will prevent duplicate charges for verification. Even if the individual is submitted under one role, bronID will map any additional relevant roles in the background and include them in the documentation.
