Explanation:
There is possible some error (typo, missing word) in the last two lines.

If "as available" refers to the applicant's account number (it is not clear as to what it refers to in the above sample, but account number is the most probable candidate) then it would be better to word it as "available in the records of the bank"

agree  Balasubramaniam L.: Yes, it is very ambiguously worded. I suspect the "is" in the second last line (last word) is actually "in".
