Citi - Why do I need to apply again if I already have FT offer?

I got a return offer to Citi last week (EMEA). HR told me to submit a new application in order to generate the contract + answer some compliance questions.

Why is this needed? I mean they should already have all the information they need from my SA?

What type of questions do I need to answer?

This is standard, don't worry. The questionnaire is a pre-offer survey, essentially just declarijg you're not a covered person and not dodgy etc

 

What type of questions more specifically? Did you receive this after your verbal offer?

 

Theyre purely regulatory, like you don't have bad credit, not a politically exposed person etc. 

Also yes, after verbal offer, but they also send this to post-AC people who are going to get an offer before they call and make the verbal.

 

Adipisci dolorem fugit culpa quas. Sit reiciendis iure eveniet omnis. Ratione eum enim quas error quia dolorem. Harum qui sit veritatis minima quasi sapiente ut et.

Rerum voluptate dicta ad fugiat recusandae vero accusantium. Debitis fuga et ea explicabo.
