oranos not sure what you're talking about here....There is a KYC process that is enforced by the Financial Services Authority in the UK. This procedure is a set of guidelines to a firms compliance officer in order to validate who the client is...an ID card is not a requirement to open a bank account or a brokerage account.
The same happens when you work for a bank or a stock brokerage in the uK....Trust me, I owned one.
