Notable Quotes 2
Kindly confirm if this is a Personal Trust and NOT Corporate Trust? After reviewing the trust agreement, we noticed that the UBO's seem not related to the grantor.
Volcker Questionnaire completed reflects this trust as a "Family Trust" but this seems inaccurate. All UBO's have different surnames and some even different nationalities. Please advise if ok to accept?
Red Flags 2
- Discrepancy between the Volcker Questionnaire and the actual composition of the Butterfly Trust's UBOs.
- Richard Kahn being added as manager of Neptune LLC without being added as an RP in the previously approved KYC Case.
Public Knowledge
- Context
- The document involves Jeffrey Epstein and raises questions about the structure and purpose of the Butterfly Trust, which could be of interest to the media.
- Media Worthy
- Yes
Legal Compliance
- Potential misclassification of the Butterfly Trust as a 'Family Trust' when UBOs have different surnames and nationalities.
- Need for CDD form if Butterfly Trust is deemed a Corporate Trust.
