An offshore company is owned by four equal partners that reside in separate jurisdictions. One partner presents an authenticated power of attorney apparently executed by the remaining three partners in his favor and requests that a bank account be opened on behalf of all partners. He needs this done quickly because there is a large deposit pending. The account-opening officer contacts the bank's anti-money laundering officer for advice. Which of the following should the anti-money laundering officer advise as an initial step?

I think verifying the source of the deposit is also crucial to ensure the legitimacy of the funds.

Ah, the old 'large deposit pending' trick. The anti-money laundering officer should definitely look into the source of that deposit before anything else.

I agree with Howard. It's important to confirm the identities before proceeding with anything else.

Verifying the identities of all the partners is the logical first step. You can't just trust a power of attorney without confirming the signatories.
