• FATCA compliance is a derivative of Core Banking/AML?

FATCA needs comprehensive, risk mitigation and case management approach.

• FATCA is not my problem, it is the compliance or legal or technology or ???

FATCA requires program governance and ownership with joint participation and alignment.

• FATCA is about identification, I guess ?

Cursory analysis of customers is not enough. Needs domain experience and ability to execute.

• FATCA is all about IRS ?

FATCA is not a one time, quick fix solution. Sons and Daughters of FATCA are just shaping up.

The Myth Busters

• Regulation to combat offshore tax evasion on US source income maintained with FFI

• Goal: Identify US Person status and accounts held by such individuals & entities (>10%)

• Approach: US Indicia based & above certain aggregated account balance threshold

• Documentation Collected: If US Indicia identified, additional documentations required which are beyond AML obligations

• Additional Complexities: Change in circumstances, 30+ statuses, repeatable remediation procedure, unpredictable changes in regulation expected in future

FATCA

• Aims to check money laundering

• Goal: Identify Beneficial Owner who owns or controls the account / customer (>25%)

• Approach: Risk Based approach

• Documentation Collected: Mainly for identifying beneficial owner

Anti-Money Laundering

Purpose of AML and FATCA

FATCA Requirement AML System Enhancement Right Approach For FATCA Compliance

Indicia Rules Only Specific fields mapped Pre-Configured rules, code-less rules are defined for all electronic searchable data and can be changed and managed

Agility of creating new rules

None Rules Engine with Agile interface for creation and modification of rules

Account Aggregation Will be built in as a check A part of seamless rule engine

Remediation Third Party application or coded small in-flexible process

Flexible Case Management solution toaccommodate remediation period for different customers

Communication with customer

To be handled outside of solution Case Management and Correspondence Module with strict audit logs and ready-to-use templates

FATCA – The Right Approach

FATCA Requirement AML System Enhancement Right Approach For FATCA Compliance

Auditing Framework No unified approach Comprehensive FATCA specific Audit Logs

Document management System

None DMS Module integral part of solution

Recalcitrant Customer New module to be built Pre-configured in solution and IGA specific policies can be configured easily

Evolve with Regulation Code to be changed and modules to be installed

Agile interface with almost no coding required for further Regulatory Changes

Manage other country FATCA regulations (UK, Germany, France etc.)

Further modules must be created Configurable. Same infrastructure can be used to configure future changes

Operational Challenges of Implementing FATCA

Heterogeneous Source I/P Systems (Core)

Deposit (Retail), Capital Markets, Trust, Wealth, Investment,Insurance Systems etc.

Multiple entities with multiple core applications

Feed file from all core systems

Multiple file formats with varying data structures

Unique identifier & secondary identifier

Data Modeling & Transformation

Field level mapping for all feed files

Field wise data conversion of all feed files in a uniformstructure

Data type, length, mandatory & format validations

CIF & Account records linkages and balance aggregationacross feed files

Normalization & Cleansing

Normalize for homogeneous representation (e.g. KYC datafrom all systems represented uniformly)

CIF level & Account level data mapping (e.g. addresses storedat both levels)

Cleansing activity for ambiguous data elements (e.g. free textfields)

Exception management for missing data elements

Data Processing

Process rule(s) on applicable sets of data from all feed files

Remediation case management for success

Identified indicia association at field level with conforming,resolving & waiver documentation requirement

Exception case management for failures (with view to RM’s/ compliance users)

Reconciliation dashboard with drill down
