QUESTIONS FOR THIS SERVICE
Questions worth clarifying.
Service-specific answers on suitability, evidence, review and next steps.
Why review CRS and AML together?
CRS concerns relevant account information and tax-residence identification; AML addresses customers, control and transaction risks. Their purposes differ, but both need consistent entity and funding facts. Coordinating preparation helps prevent contradictory information.
How should multiple residences or identities be reviewed?
Map residence, family, work and economic connections and gather local tax records. A residence permit or passport alone does not determine tax residence. Where several jurisdictions are involved, seek an applicable-rules analysis before completing declarations.
Does an offshore company still need a control review?
Map actual control, ownership, authority and beneficial interests to company records. Explain each entity’s purpose, then have relevant professionals assess entity classification, controlling persons and banking diligence requirements rather than relying on the registration location.
What does banking support involve?
Organise entity records, business background, intended activity and SOF/SOW evidence for onboarding or review. Help clarify discrepancies and questions. Banks make their own acceptance decisions; preparation focuses on consistent facts, documents and transaction plans.
What if earlier declarations differ from current facts?
Establish the cause, timing and affected accounts, distinguishing changed circumstances from an original reporting issue. Preserve earlier records and new evidence, then obtain professional advice on correction or notification before approaching relevant institutions.
What does a structure review deliver?
An entity and control map, consistency checks, open questions and a maintenance checklist. Identify matters requiring tax, legal or bank decisions and the responsible professionals, helping the family prioritise evidence, advice or process changes.
Which changes should trigger a new review?
Changes in residence or tax connections, ownership, beneficial interests, account purposes or significant funding sources warrant checking existing explanations. Maintain an event log and responsible contact, with reviews tailored to institutional requirements and the engagement.
Must sensitive documents be submitted at the start?
At the public entry point, describe jurisdictions, entity types, account needs and main questions only. Agree the review purpose, scope, authority and secure delivery process later. Do not send identity documents, full account numbers or bank statements through public forms.
