The U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), and Common Reporting Standard (CRS) are regulations that impose upon affected Financial Institutions a due diligence and reporting regime of their Account Holders to interested governments and tax authorities.

Apply the appropriate Account Holder classification to investors who have submitted valid documentation.
