Account Holder means the person listed or identified as the holder of a Financial Account by the Financial Institution that maintains the account.

In the case of a Cash Value Insurance Contract or an Annuity Contract, the Account Holder is any person entitled to access the Cash Value or change the beneficiary of the contract. If no person can access the Cash Value or change the beneficiary, the Account Holder is any person named as the owner in the contract and any person with a vested entitlement to payment under the terms of the contract.

(f) The NFFE is not yet operating a business and has no prior operating history, but is investing capital into assets with the intent to operate a business other than that of a Financial Institution; provided, that the NFFE shall not qualify for this exception after the date that is 24 months after the date of the initial organization of the NFFE;

  v) The applicable laws of the Entity’s country of residence or the Entity’s formation documents require that, upon the Entity’s liquidation or dissolution, all of its assets be distributed to a governmental entity or other non-profit organization, or escheat to the government of the Entity’s jurisdiction of residence or any political subdivision thereof.

The term ‘Controlling Persons’ shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the Financial Action Task Force Recommendations (“FATF”).

 

FATF Recommendations on Controlling Persons:

 

Identify the beneficial owners of the customer and take reasonable measures to verify the identity of such persons, through the following information. For legal persons21:

 

(a) The identity of the natural persons (if any – as ownership interests can be so diversified that there are no natural persons (whether acting alone or together) exercising control of the legal person or arrangement through ownership) who ultimately have a controlling ownership interest22 in a legal person; and
   
(b) to the extent that there is doubt under (a) as to whether the person(s) with the controlling ownership interest are the beneficial owner(s) or where no natural person exerts control through ownership interests, the identity of the natural persons (if any) exercising control of the legal person or arrangement through other means.
   
(c) Where no natural person is identified under (a) or (b) above, financial institutions should identify and take reasonable measures to verify the identity of the relevant natural person who holds the position of senior managing official.

 

Entity means a legal person or a legal arrangement such as a trust.

 

Exempt Beneficial Owners under the US IGA include Government entities, International Organisations, Central Bank, Broad Participation Retirement Funds, Narrow Participation Retirement Funds, Pension Funds of an Exempt Beneficial Owner, and Investment Entities wholly owned by Exempt Beneficial Owners. Please refer to the IGA for detailed definitions.

 

Financial Institution means a Custodial Institution, a Depository Institution, an Investment Entity, or a Specified Insurance Company, where:

Non-U.S. Entity means an Entity that is not a U.S. Person.

 

Passive Non-Financial Foreign Entity means any NFFE that is not an Active Non-Financial Foreign Entity.

 

 
21 Measures (a) to (b) are not alternative options, but are cascading measures, with each to be used where the previous measure has been applied and has not identified a beneficial owner.

 38 
   

 

Related Entity An entity is a Related Entity of another entity if either entity controls the other entity, or the two entities are under common control.

Controlling Person means the natural persons who exercise direct or indirect control over an entity.

 

In the case of a trust, such term means the settlor(s), the trustees(s), the protector(s) (if any), the beneficiary(ies) or class(es) of beneficiaries, and any other natural person(s) exercising ultimate effective control over the trust, and in the case of a legal arrangement other than a trust, such term means persons in equivalent or similar positions. The term ‘Controlling Persons’ shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the Financial Action Task Force Recommendations (“FATF”).

 

FATF Recommendations on Controlling Persons:

 

Identify the beneficial owners of the customer and take reasonable measures to verify the identity of such persons, through the following information. For legal persons23:

 

(a) The identity of the natural persons (if any – as ownership interests can be so diversified that there are no natural persons (whether acting alone or together) exercising control of the legal person or arrangement through ownership) who ultimately have a controlling ownership interest24 in a legal person; and
   
(b) to the extent that there is doubt under (a) as to whether the person(s) with the controlling ownership interest are the beneficial owner(s) or where no natural person exerts control through ownership interests, the identity of the natural persons (if any) exercising control of the legal person or arrangement through other means.
   
(c) Where no natural person is identified under (a) or (b) above, financial institutions should identify and take reasonable measures to verify the identity of the relevant natural person who holds the position of senior managing official.

 

Financial Institution means a Custodial Institution, a Depository Institution, an Investment Entity, or a Specified Insurance Company, where:

 

(a) Custodial Institution means any entity that holds, as a substantial portion of its business, financial assets for the account of others.

(b) Depository Institution means any entity that accepts deposits in the ordinary course of a banking or similar business;
   
(c) Investment Entity means any entity :

 

  (A) that primarily conducts as a business one or more of the following activities or operations for or on behalf of a customer:

 

  i) trading in money market instruments (cheques, bills, certificates of deposit, derivatives, etc.); foreign exchange; exchange, interest rate and index instruments; transferable securities; or commodity futures trading;
  ii) individual and collective portfolio management; or
  iii) otherwise investing, administering, or managing Financial Assets or money on behalf of other persons; or

 

  (B) the gross income of which is primarily attributable to investing, reinvesting, or trading in Financial Assets, if the entity is managed by another entity that is a Depository Institution, a Custodial Institution, a Specified Insurance Company, or an Investment Entity described in limb (A) of this definition.

 

An entity is treated as primarily conducting as a business one or more of the activities described in limb (A), or an entity’s gross income is primarily attributable to investing, reinvesting, or trading in Financial Assets for purposes of limb (B) if the entity’s gross income attributable to the relevant activities equals or exceeds 50% of the entity’s gross income during the shorter of: (i) the three-year period ending on 31 December of the year preceding the year in which the determination is made; or (ii) the period during which the entity has been in existence. The term “Investment Entity” does not include an entity that is an Active Non-Financial Foreign Entity because it meets any of the criteria in subparagraphs d) through (g) of the definition of Active NFE.

 

The preceding paragraph shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with similar language set forth in the definition of “financial institution” in the Financial Action Task Force Recommendations; and

 

 
23 Measures (a) to (b) are not alternative options, but are cascading measures, with each to be used where the previous measure has been applied and has not identified a beneficial owner.
24 A controlling ownership interest depends on the ownership structure of the company. The threshold in respect of a legal person is direct or indirect ownership or control of 10% or more of the shares or voting rights in the legal person, being the threshold specified by the Anti-Money Laundering Regulations, 2017 which implement the FATF Recommendations in the Cayman Islands.

 

 41

(e) a trust to the extent that the trustee of the trust is a Reporting Financial Institution and reports all information required to be reported pursuant to Section I with respect to all Reportable Accounts of the trust.
