As you are aware, 28 September 2015 was the last day (not counting legitimate extensions) for foreign banks to file 2014 reporting with the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for compliance with the US Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). Banks that have filed their reporting went through all the stages required under FATCA, from customer identification to providing an xml-file to the IRS.
We’re pleased to invite you to an open discussion on the interim results of FATCA implementation, which will focus on the challenges and issues that financial institutions have faced in putting FATCA reporting procedures in place as well as ways to overcome future challenges and avoid pitfalls.
