|
|
iv. |
in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between any of the contents of these terms and conditions and other terms and conditions that govern the Borrower's relationship with the Bank, these terms and conditions in relation to FATCA and CRS shall prevail. |
For clarification, unless the context requires otherwise, the following words and expressions shall have the following meaning:
“CRS” was developed in response to the G20 request and approved by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Council on 15 July 2014, calls on jurisdictions to obtain information from their financial institutions and automatically exchange that information with other jurisdictions on an annual basis. It sets out the financial account information to be exchanged, the financial institutions required to report, the different types of accounts and taxpayers covered, as well as common due diligence procedures to be followed by financial institutions.

13“Controlling Person(s)” are the natural person(s) who exercise control over an entity. Where that entity is treated as a Passive Non-Financial Entity (“Passive NFE”) then a Financial Institution is required to determine whether or not these Controlling Persons are Reportable Persons. This definition corresponds to the term “beneficial owner” described in Recommendation 10 and the Interpretative Note on Recommendation 10 of the Financial Action Task Force Recommendations (as adopted in February 2012).
In the case of a trust, the Controlling Person(s) are the settlor(s), the trustee(s), the protector(s) (if any), the beneficiary(ies) or class(es) of beneficiaries, or any other natural person(s) exercising ultimate effective control over the trust (including through a chain of control or ownership). Under the CRS the settlors), the trustee(s), the protectors) (if any), and the beneficiary(ies) or class(es) of beneficiaries, are always treated as Controlling Persons of a trust, regardless of whether or not any of them exercises control over the activities of the trust. Where the settlor(s) of a trust is an Entity then the CRS requires Financial Institutions to also identify the Controlling Persons of the settlor(s) and when required report them as Controlling Persons of the trust. In the case of a legal arrangement other than a trust, Controlling Person(s) means persons in equivalent or similar positions.
“FATCA” which was passed as part of the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment (HIRE) Act, generally requires that foreign financial Institutions and certain other non-financial foreign entities report on the foreign assets held by their U.S. account holders or be subject to withholding on withholdable payments. The HIRE Act also contained legislation requiring U.S. persons to report, depending on the value, their foreign financial accounts and foreign assets.
“Personal Information” in respect of the Borrower and any Controlling Person, means: (i) where the Borrower and any Controlling Person is an individual, his/her full name, date and place of birth, residential address, mailing address, contact information (including telephone number), and any TIN, social security number, citizenship(s), residency(ies) and tax residency(ies) or (if applicable) such other information as the RHB Banking Group may reasonably require regarding such Borrower and any Controlling Person; (ii) where the Borrower and any Controlling Person is a corporate/entity, its full name, date and place of incorporation or formation, registered address, address of place of business, tax identification number, tax status, tax residency, registered address, address of place of business, certification of its CRS status/classification or (if applicable) such other information as the RHB Banking Group may reasonably require regarding each of its substantial shareholders and controlling persons.
“TIN” (including “functional equivalent”) means Taxpayer Identification Number or a functional equivalent in the absence of a TIN. A TIN is a unique combination of letters or numbers assigned by a jurisdiction to an individual or an Entity and used to identify the individual or Entity for the purposes of administering the tax laws of such jurisdiction. Further details of acceptable TINs can be found at the following link [https://www.oecd.org/tax/automatic-exchange/crs-implementation-and- assistance/tax-identification-numbers]. Some jurisdictions do not issue a TIN. However, these jurisdictions often utilise some other high integrity number with an equivalent level of identification (a “functional equivalent”). Examples of that type of number include, for Entities, a Business/company registration code/number.
“Tax Information” in respect of a Borrower and any Controlling Person, means: (i) any documentation or information (and accompanying statements, forms, representations, waivers and consents as the RHB Banking Group may from time to time require or as the Borrower and any Controlling Person from time to time give) relating, directly or indirectly, to the tax status of the Borrower and any Controlling Person; (ii) Personal Information of the Borrower and any Controlling Person; (iii) Account Information; and (iv) any other information received by any member of the RHB Banking Group in relation to the Borrower, including information collected and maintained pursuant to Anti-Money Laundering/ Know Your Customer (AML/KYC) procedures.
