The automatic exchange of information is rapidly becoming the global standard. Many countries have committed to implementing the OECD’s Common Reporting Standard (CRS) beginning in 2017 and with others following in 2018. At the same time, the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) continues to pose challenges. CRS builds upon FATCA, and is intended to provide a global standard for the automatic exchange of financial account information between governments, but there are differences between FATCA and CRS and between jurisdictions. Learn about the current status of these global standards in Asia Pacific and how you should prepare going forward.
