5. Cost Basis Election
Please provide your cost basis calculation method. PGIM default method is Average Cost. If you accept PGIM default method for your taxable transactions, then you can skip this section. Under current IRS regulations, you have up to the date of the first redemption of shares acquired to change your elections.
Check only one method from the list below.
|
☐ |
Average Cost-Under this method, we use the average basis of all shares owned at the time of redemption, regardless of how long you owned them. To determine the holding period, the shares sold are considered to be those acquired first. |
|
|
☐ |
First In First Out (FIFO)-This method keeps track of every tax lot of shares purchased. When calculating gain or loss, this method depletes tax lots in the chronological order in which available lots were acquired. |
|
|
☐ |
Last In First Out (LIFO)-The most recent shares acquired will be redeemed first. |
|
|
☐ |
Highest Cost In, First Out (HIFO)-The highest cost shares will be redeemed first. |
|
|
☐ |
Lowest Cost In, First Out (LOFO)-The lowest cost shares will be redeemed first. Lowest Cost Long-Term |
|
|
☐ |
Loss Gain Utilization (LGU)-- Evaluates losses and gains, and also strategically selects lots based on the loss/gain in conjunction with the holding period. |

CERTIFICATION REGARDING BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF LEGAL ENTITY CUSTOMERS
To help the government fight financial crime, Federal regulation requires certain financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information about the beneficial owners of legal entity customers. Legal entities can be abused to disguise involvement in terrorist financing, money laundering, tax evasion, corruption, fraud, and other financial crimes. Requiring the disclosure of key individuals who own or control a legal entity (i.e., the beneficial owners) helps law enforcement investigate and prosecute these crimes.
Any person opening a new account on behalf of a legal entity with any of the following U.S. financial institutions: (i) a bank or credit union; (ii) a broker or dealer in securities; (iii) a mutual fund; (iv) a futures commission merchant; or (v) an introducing broker in commodities.
A legal entity includes a corporation, limited liability company, or other entity that is created by a filing of a public document with a Secretary of State or similar office, a general partnership, and any similar business entity formed in the United States or a foreign country. Legal entity does not include sole proprietorships, unincorporated associations, or natural persons opening accounts on their own behalf.
What information do I have to provide?
You are required to provide the name, legal address, date of birth and Social Security number (or passport number or other similar information, in the case of foreign persons) for the following individuals (i.e., the beneficial owners):
(i) Each individual, if any, who owns, directly or indirectly, 25 percent or more of the equity interests of the legal entity customer (e.g., each natural person that owns 25 percent or more of the shares of a corporation); and
(ii) An individual with significant responsibility for managing the legal entity customer (e.g., a Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Managing Member, General Partner, President, Vice President, or Treasurer). The number of individuals that satisfy this definition of "beneficial owner" may vary. Under section (i), depending on the factual circumstances, up to four individuals (but as few as zero) may need to be identified. Regardless of the number of individuals identified under section (i), you must provide the identifying information of one individual under section (ii). It is possible that in some circumstances the same individual might be identified under both sections (e.g., the President of Acme, Inc. who also holds a 30% equity interest). Thus, a completed form will contain the identifying information of at least one individual (under section (ii)), and up to five individuals (i.e., one individual under section (ii) and four 25 percent equity holders under section (i)).
The financial institution may also ask to see a copy of a driver's license or other identifying document for each beneficial owner listed on this form.
