The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development‘s Common Reporting Standard (CRS)–a cross-border account holder disclosure regime in force in over 100 countries worldwide, including most of the world’s leading financial centres–requires that entities qualifying as Financial Institutions, including banks, trusts/foundation and investment companies and funds, identify and disclose the account holders and/or beneficial owners of the financial accounts they maintain. This information is automatically exchanged with the tax authorities in the jurisdiction of residence of the account holders and/or beneficial owners. Non-compliance with the regime is subject to severe penalties and enforcement through audits and other requirements is increasing. In many jurisdictions, a written CRS compliance program is mandatory.
