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.
