(ii) Verify the identity of each beneficial owner so identified according to risk based procedures to the extent reasonable and practicable, in accordance with the minimum requirements of the CDD Rule.
(C) Nothing in Section (3) shall be construed to require BNYM to perform any course of conduct that is not required for Fund compliance with the CIP Regulations or CDD Rule, including by way of illustration not limitation the collection of Data Elements or verification of identity for individuals opening Fund accounts through financial intermediaries which use the facilities of the NSCC.
