Notable Quotes 3
Just to clarify, the below response is only answering my questions regarding the Outgoing Transfers and both of these transfers were towards the purchase of art?
We will need the ultimate originator for the Incoming Transfer.
Per our conversation with client — the beneficiary in this situation is an escrow account in which the cash will be held until art is delivered.
