Banks verify ownership, activity, and purpose. Have your ACRA Business Profile, Constitution, and a Board Resolution authorising account opening/signatories. For people and control, provide IDs and recent address proofs for directors and UBOs (>25%), plus an org chart down to natural persons. Show real activity with sample invoices/POs/LOIs, supplier quotes, and website screenshots. Add a one-page banking plan: expected FAST/PayNow counts, international wires, FX volume, and any card/integration needs. Keep wording consistent across ACRA, website, and invoices.
