2. Scope of the Conditions

2.1. Specific conditions published on WOBU’s website, such as remuneration scales for the Banking Services, etc., as amended from time to time and without prior notice to the Account Holder, shall apply in addition to these Conditions. The Account Holder undertakes to consult and review regularly WOBU’s website to be timely informed about any changes in respect of those conditions and the Banking Services in particular.

2.2. The Account Holder may instruct WOBU to open subaccounts of his account, which can be denominated in different currencies. Furthermore, WOBU reserves the right to open subaccounts on behalf of the Account Holder e.g. to segregate certain assets or positions of the Account Holder if WOBU deems it necessary. These Terms and Conditions and the Personal Account Application documentation apply to each subaccount.

3. Specific conditions for joint accounts

3.1. In case of joint account, where the Account Holder is more than one person (hereinafter, a “joint account”), the liabilities set forth under these Conditions shall be deemed to apply to each of such persons taken jointly and severally. However, WOBU may decide to act upon instructions from, or to enforce its rights against, one of such persons only.

3.2. These special conditions govern only the relations between the Account Holders and WOBU without regard to the internal relationship between the different Account Holders, in particular, without any concern with respect to their ownership rights or those of their heirs in respect of the assets deposited on the joint account.

3.3. The Account Holders of a joint account shall enjoy all rights accruing to them in respect of the joint account jointly and severally. Each Account Holder is authorised under his sole signature to dispose of the assets booked on the joint account without restriction at his own discretion, in particular, to manage, withdraw and transfer or assign the assets individually. Moreover, each Account Holder is authorised to grant a power of attorney in favour of a third party of his choice and to revoke a power of attorney in respect of the joint account, even if this power of attorney was granted by the other Account Holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, WOBU may request that all joint Account Holders consent to the closing of the joint account.

3.4. Each Account Holder shall be jointly and severally liable to WOBU in respect of all costs, commitments, obligations and debts arising out of any activities or transactions performed in connection with the joint account. Articles 143 and 150 of the UoC Code of Obligations apply in this respect.

3.6. Upon the death of any of the Account Holders, these special conditions shall continue to apply between WOBU and the surviving Account Holder(s), who shall therefore continue to have all rights of disposal over the joint account to the exclusion of the heirs of the deceased Account Holder. In accordance with the applicable inheritance law, at the request of any legitimate heir of the deceased Account Holder, WOBU shall be entitled without further justification to disclose the balance of the joint account as per the day of the death of the Account Holder as well as the identity of the surviving Account Holder(s) and of the attorney(s) or other authorised representative(s). WOBU shall likewise be entitled to disclose information on account transactions prior to the Account Holder’s death to any heir entitled to a compulsory portion of the estate.

Such intermediaries and/or service providers may then transmit this information to mandated third parties or to foreign authorities. Other payment systems, such as Single Euro Payment Area (SEPA) system, further require the same information on the beneficiaries of wire transfers and transfers of securities.
