Set up a third party authority

You can provide authority to access your accounts to people in your life such as your partner, a family member or a financial intermediary like a financial adviser or an accountant. Different levels of third party account authorities are available, depending on the account you hold. They’re all outlined in the list below. 

It’s important to remember that third party authorities allow significant access to your account(s) that would normally be limited to you and/or other account holder(s) only. For your protection, you may need to make further enquiries to understand the scope and powers provided under third party authorities before allowing such access. 

To set up third party authority for an account, download and complete the relevant form, then return it to us via the details shown on the form. In some situations, we need to identify the third party so extra documentation will be required from them; this is explained on each form too.
