When a customer opens a current account, they must deposit their signature with the bank. The signature is needed to verify whether the transaction, especially payment transactions, are actually being carried out by the account holder. If the current account is held by two or more persons, each one must deposit their signature.

The contract must specify the transactions that require the signature of all account holders and those which may be carried out with only one signature. This means that a current account may be opened by more than one person, and that each person may use the account in an independent manner.
