: this would be my option for a US audience. I used to work at a bank, and we always called our patrons "customers" not "clients"

Discussion
Are these formal, individual letters or pre-printed forms or emails? I'm just wondering if the abbreviated form doesn't sound more like the shortened language of emails.
Could it be that in this case estimada means considered or deemed?
She is considered /deemed to be a client of the bank?
