Developing clear strategies for
identifying U.S. Accounts through
benchmarking your onboarding process
e Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires you to
report information on financial accounts held by U.S. taxpayers, or
held by foreign entities in which U.S. taxpayers hold a substantial
ownership interest. In order to identify customers who are
U.S. taxpayers, FFIs are required to implement due diligence,
identification, controls and reporting systems.
But categorising U.S. accounts to enable a successful pre-existing
account review has been a challenge. is masterclass will enable
you to effectively explore and implement set procedures for
account review, categorise U.S. and non U.S. accounts and identify
against the broad definition of U.S. person in your organisation.
Overview:
ü Effectively identifying the criteria to categorise U.S. and non U.S.
accounts
ü Exploring set procedures for efficient pre-existing account
analysis operations
ü Determining different processes to successfully complete the
pre-existing account review and client onboarding

Devising implementable and hands-on
strategies to effectively review
pre-existing clients as per FATCA
requirements
13:30 - 17:30
FATCA requires FFIs to report information for U.S. accounts. As with
withholding, the reporting requirements will be phased in gradually
between 2014 and 2017. Only identifying information and account
balance or value would be reported in 2014 and 2015. Beginning in
2016, reporting may be required for income and in 2017; it could be
expanded to include gross proceeds from the sale of securities. In
addition, the proposed regulations provide that the FFI may report
information in U.S. dollars or in the currency in which the account is
maintained.
Overview:
ü Managing the application process for registering an FFI
ü Exploring strategies for FFIs to ensure cross jurisdictions
complex compliance
ü Identifying IRS expectations from reporting FFIs
ü Ascertaining reportable income and transactions in a system:
interest, dividends, gross proceeds and identifying reportable
accounts: U.S. Persons, Recalcitrant, NPFFI
ü Populating XML files and reporting to the competent authority or
