FATCA & CRS Compliance, Reporting and Best Practices

Workshop Overview

Trainer: Christopher Jehan

This four-day course offers comprehensive workshop-style training in both the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) and the Common Reporting Standard (CRS) suitable to both those who are new to the subject and those who are seeking to extend their knowledge and understanding.

The course will start with the background to the Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI) as a means of combatting tax evasion before moving to a high-level examination of both FATCA and CRS. This will be followed by detailed analysis of the various components of both initiatives before moving to look at compliance controls and finishing off with regulatory supervision and a look forward to coming AEOI initiatives (including version 2 of CRS).

The course combines theory and practical examples (derived from the trainer’s consultancy practice) to provide a holistic learning process designed to both instruct and reinforce the course content. The course will be interactive with a combination of course lectures, discussions, and workshops.
