Minutes from Dublin – Tim Maltin
Overview of the Agenda (Input 01) Dublin BD minutes (Input 02) Update on Dublin Action Points (Input 04) OFB Grids and review calls Website data grid New pricing tab layout including new CSP template UBO Presentation/Webinar CRS Review Referral Reporting enhancements Website training webinars
5
AGM Update – Bob Lyddon Documents approved at the AGM:
New list of IBOS Manuals (09) New layout of Open-for-Business Grids (10) New Condensed Standard Pricing template – SEPA Area (11) New Condensed Standard Pricing template – Non-SEPA Area (12) Guide for completion of UBO work on a referral (13) – aka Joe’s deck for the UBO Webinar BD Group has the leeway to amend these documents and the Board will not second-guess
6
AGM Update – New Banks KBC Lille branch as Host Bank (in implementation) Santander UK as Associate (Account-Holding Bank then followed by Host Bank – in documentation) SVB London branch as Host Bank (going for internal approval) National Australia Bank as Full Member in Australia with New Zealand as Associate (Account-Holding Bank then followed by Host Bank in both cases - making a presentation to their own Board imminently) Citizens Bank, New England: early stages of investigation as Full Member doing both sides
7
AGM Update – New banks Little traction with other banks in Asia-Pac
Mizuho for Japan only has been mentioned but that would alienate BTMU straight away without resulting with certainty in a positive outcome Santander has made an introduction for IBOS to Bank of Shanghai, in which they hold an 8% stake SVB has mentioned their 50/50 joint-venture in Shanghai Silicon Valley Bank
8
AGM Update – New banks Bank of Shanghai and Shanghai Silicon Valley Bank would qualify as Independent Associates, not Affiliate Associates, because of the shareholding levels: Could only act as Account-Holding Bank That might be good as other IBOS banks would not need to place reliance on their KYC processes for customers But these banks would still have to pass existing members’ KYC tests on themselves, and exchange SWIFT RMA keys
9
AGM Update – Asia-Pacific
The proposal, alongside pursuing those leads, is to reconfirm requirements via a survey in SmartSurvey: Which countries What type of coverage Would banks domiciled in those countries (and not Affiliate Associates of current members) fail your KYC tests as a principle? Would your bank as a policy refuse to exchange RMA with a bank domiciled in that country? Would your bank as a policy not place any reliance on statements from banks in those countries about their own customers (thus precluding their acting as Host Bank)?

Account Opening Agreement
Package of new Account Opening Agreement, Policy on Translation/Notarisation/Apostiling, and Business Case
11
Account Opening Agreement Update – Bob Lyddon
Introduction to the proposed new package: Business Case (14) Account Opening Agreement (15), incorporating: Pre-clearance CRS Letters of Introduction Separate Policy on Translation, Notarisation and Apostiling (16)
12
Account Opening Agreement Update – Bob Lyddon
Mechanics: Need to allow that the “Manuals” incorporated in the Account Opening Agreement can be amended without re-signing the Agreement every time Need to ensure we incorporate the then-current version of the CRS upon signature… …including the pdf version(s)
13
Account Opening Agreement Update – Bob Lyddon
Intentions and Business Case: What the new package is intended to facilitate Why that is good and should lead to more business and the more efficient processing of business Where we could go next and why that would be good
14
Account Opening Agreement Update – Bob Lyddon
Overview of comments received so far: Ulster Bank Intesa SanPaolo SpA UniCredit (about translation agencies)
15
Account Opening Agreement Update – Bob Lyddon
Support offered by 4th EU AML Directive: Most IBOS banks count as “obliged entities”, including branches and subsidiaries outside the EU/EEA of members inside the EU/EEA Members outside the EU/EEA (USA, Canada) should be classed as in low-risk countries (to be checked by them to assure themselves that the same applies under their regime)
16
Account Opening Agreement
Support offered by 4th EU AML Directive: 4AMLD allows one “obliged entity” to rely on another “obliged entity” as a Trusted Third-Party, the same as a notary or accountant This permits an Account-Holding Bank to rely on any warranties from the Host Bank given during the Account Opening Process as regards authenticity of customer documents Each IBOS bank will need to sell that story to their Compliance Unit because it would then mean that IBOS referrals default to treatment as being of low risk
17
Account Opening Agreement
Key points for Host Banks: Does the deal described by the documents represent the deal that Host Banks want, that will enable you to make more referrals and manage customer expectations? Can Host Banks make the representations listed in the documents regarding their customers and the authenticity of Background Documents? What are the discrepancies, if any, between what these documents say, and what banks can get buy-in for? Is there an appetite for getting that buy-in?
18
Account Opening Agreement
Key points for Account-Holding Banks: Are Account-Holding Banks able to deliver this deal on their side, particularly as regards translation of documents and choice of translation agency? What are the discrepancies, if any, between what these documents say, and what banks can get buy-in for? Is there an appetite for getting that buy-in?

IBOS CRS Review
60
Letter of introduction Are tax numbers needed? Turnover and P/L
CRS Review Letter of introduction Repeats a great deal of the information already in the CRS Do we need it or should it be incorporated into the CRS? Are tax numbers needed? Be specific about tax ID required, e.g., income vs. VAT Turnover and P/L Why 3 years of figures (past vs. forecast) for the parent? Why is P/L important? For the applicant, would it be better to know turnover end of 1st and 3rd years? Name and country of key suppliers and customers Do banks actually use this detail, i.e., names? Focus instead on countries? Would it be sufficient to ask about sanctioned countries?
61
Length of relationship with HB Transaction volumes and values
CRS Review Length of relationship with HB Should be this be about the parent or the subsidiary? Transaction volumes and values Monthly? Cover both incoming and outgoing transactions Estimate percentage allocation of electronic vs. paper Estimate of domestic vs. international Average deposit balance? At end on 1st year and 3rd year of operations? Repeat per currency of account Mandators and Signatories Define mandator vs. signatory? Signing agreements (now and future) vs. transactional authority Handle the requirements for signing mandates separately from transactional signing requirements How do we verify the correct appointment of mandators? 61
62
Directors and other “controlling” individuals PEPs
CRS Review Directors and other “controlling” individuals Directors and senior management (see mandators) We need this information PEPs Can the question be dropped and handled through your background checks? Can we instead provide a general advice on the CRS about PEPs? Why the address of parent company? Payment limits for faxed instructions Should we offer this as a standard option? Signing of CRS Both the client and the HB should sign it HB’s signature should always bear an “IBOS team” signatory 62
63
Bank specific requirements
CRS Review Missing components Number of employees, local vs. group-wide Operating details such as handling of account statements Initial deposit Whether the account will be for a third party Whether shares are issued in bearer form What do we need regarding FATCA? Bank specific requirements 63
