CRS informations

Exchange of information - OECD

The Common Reporting Standard (CRS), developed in response to the G20 request and approved by the OECD Council on 15 July 2014, calls on jurisdictions to obtain information from their financial institutions and automatically exchange that information with other jurisdictions on an annual basis. It sets out the financial account information to be exchanged, the financial institutions required to report, the different types of accounts and taxpayers covered, as well as common due diligence procedures to be followed by financial institutions.

The Standard consists of the following four key parts:

• A model Competent Authority Agreement (CAA), providing the international legal framework for the automatic exchange of CRS information;
• The Common Reporting Standard;
• The Commentaries on the CAA and the CRS; and
• The CRS XML Schema User Guide
