STANDARD FOR AUTOMATIC EXCHANGE OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNT
INFORMATION IN TAX MATTERS
In recent years, governments and financial institutions have become much more
aware of the large amounts of undisclosed wealth held in offshore accounts.
The Standard for Automatic Exchange of Financial Account Information in Tax Matters
(also referred to as the Common Reporting Standard or CRS) creates a globally
co-ordinated and consistent approach to the disclosure of financial accounts held
by account holders. The agreement requires sharing of information between the tax
authorities regarding accounts and investments.
SA is one of the early adopters of the CRS and is committed to commence exchange
of information automatically on a wider front from 2017, together with over one
hundred other jurisdictions.
