You can maintain FATCA withholding rules in the ‘FATCA Rule Maintenance’ screen. In this screen, you can describe a set of conditions and return the resultant decision. The FATCA Withholding Rule Maintenance helps to create a rule that determines whether FATCA withholding is required or not. While defining tax rule, a flag indicates whether the tax rule is a FATCA based rule or not. If case the tax rule is a FATCA based rule, then a FATCA withholding rule has to be linked to the tax rule.

During evaluation of the tax rule, the FATCA withholding rule is evaluated first and based on the outcome of the FATCA withholding rule, the tax rule computes the withholding tax.

The conditions you can describe are as follows:

l The beneficiary customer’s recalcitrant status

l The obligations US sourced status and grandfathered status

l The expression evaluating the amount tag, currency, transaction code, module, and the customers status (internal or external)

The resultant decision are as follows:

l Withhold

l Do not withhold

l Refer for Manual Processing

The tax computation for the resultant decision are as follows:

l If the outcome is ‘Withhold’, the tax is computed and liquidated.

l If the outcome is ‘Do not withhold, the tax will not be computed.

4.9.1 Maintaining Intraday Batches

You can define the following intraday batches to identify the customers based on FATCA classification:

l FATCACOM

l FATCAEXT

4.9.2 Processing FATCACOM Batch

FATCACOM batch scans all the customer records to check whether the customers qualify for FATCA. The batch identifies the FATCA classified customer records and marks them in FATCA classification data stores.

Note

The FATCACOM batch should be run at least once so that the existing customer records can be scanned to check if they are eligible for FATCA.

The processing logic of the batch is available under the section ‘FATCA Classification Data Population into Data Stores’.

4.9.2.1 Maintenance

In order to enable this batch, you need to maintain the following details in ‘Batch EOD Function Input’ screen.

Function ID

Specify the function ID as FATCACOM.

End of Cycle Group

Select the end of cycle group ‘Transaction Input’.

Report Orientation

Select ‘Not Applicable’.

For further details regarding ‘Batch EOD Function Input’ screen, refer to the chapter ‘Automated End of Cycle Operations’ in the Automated End of Day user manual.

4.9.3 Processing FATCAEXT Batch

FATCAEXT batch extracts data for FATCA reporting. The data for FATCA reporting is extracted usually at the end of a financial year. However, at the bank’s discretion, the report can be extracted on any date. An ad-hoc (intra-day) batch facilitates extraction of data for FATCA reporting.

The parameters and details of FATCAEXT batch are as follows:

l The batch extracts data as of a date. This date is termed as the extraction date. The extraction date is stamped on every extraction record.

l A start date or the date from which the records are to be extracted is provided as a ‘function input’ for the intra-day batch. All records starting from this start date and including the extraction date is extracted and stored. If the start date is not provided, it is assumed that the first date of the financial year is the start date. The extraction date is the end date and it need not be input.

l Only one set of record is stored for a given extraction date. If the batch is re-run on any given date, then old records extracted for that date is first be deleted and the new set of records are stored.

The processing logic of the batch is available under the section ‘FATCA Classification Data Population into Data Stores’.

4.11 Data Population into Data Stores

This section contains the following topics:

l Section 4.11.1, "FATCA Classification Data Population into Data Stores"

l Section 4.11.2, "Automatic Population of Check List for Due Diligence"

4.11.1 FATCA Classification Data Population into Data Stores

The system populates the data related to FATCA classification into the FATCA classification data stores as per the logic provided below.

This logic is applicable only if ‘FATCA Applicable’ flag is set to ‘Y’ in the ‘Bank Parameters Maintenance’ screen.

Case 1: The customer is an Individual or Corporate customer and satisfies US indicia

conditions, then the process is as follows:

 

4. The system checks whether the customer record exist in the FATCA classification data store. If the record does not exists, then the system will insert a record into FATCA CLASSIFICATION data store with the following parameters:

l ‘US Indicia Present’ flag set to ‘Y’

l ‘FATCA Classification’ set to ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’

l ‘Tracking Required’ flag set to ‘Y’                         

5. The system inserts a record into FATCA CLASSIFICATION LOG data store with the reason for logging as ‘NEW – US Indicia Present’. The system also sets the US Indicia match criteria to the appropriate matching criteria and US Indicia Updated flag to ‘Y’.

6. If the system finds that the customer record already exists in the FATCA classification data store, there can be the following situations:

l ‘US Indicia’ flag is set to ‘N’. In this case, the system updates the customer record in the FATCA CLASSIFICATION data store with the following details:

‘US Indicia Present’ flag updated to ‘Y’

‘FATCA Classification’ set to ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’

‘Tracking Required’ flag updated to ‘Y’

7. The system inserts a record into FATCA CLASSIFICATION LOG data store with the reason for logging as ‘CHANGE-US Indicia Present’. The system also sets the US Indicia match criteria to the appropriate matching criteria and US Indicia Updated flag to ‘Y’.

l  ‘US Indicia’ flag is set to ‘Y’ and the customer’s FATCA classification is maintained as ‘Reportable’ in ‘FATCA Parameters Maintenance’. In this case, the system checks document status for ‘Recalcitrant’ flag.

If the expected submission date is prior to the current date and actual submission date in document checklist is null, the ‘Recalcitrant’ flag will be updated to ‘Y’.

The system inserts a record into FATCA CLASSIFICATION LOG data store with the reason for logging as ‘CHANGE-Document not submitted’ and ‘Recalcitrant Updated’ flag will be set to ‘Y’.

If the document expiry date is prior to the current date in document check list, the ‘Recalcitrant’ flag will be updated to ‘Y’.

The system inserts a record into data store with the reason for logging as ‘CHANGE– Document expired’ and ‘Recalcitrant Updated’ flag will be set t ‘Y’.

If a customer record is marked by the system as ‘Recalcitrant’ with Recalcitrant flag set as ‘Y’, the system will not reset it to back to ‘N’, even if the conditions no longer applies on  that customer at a later stage. You need to manually deal with such situations by applying due-diligence. You can set the ‘Recalcitrant’ flag manually as deemed fit.

Case 2: If the customer is an Individual or Corporate and does not satisfy US indicia

conditions, then the process is as follows:

 

8. The system checks whether the customer record exist in the FATCA classification data store. If the record does not exist, then no processing is required.

9. If the record already exists and the ‘US Indicia’ flag is set to ‘Y’ then, the system updates the customer record in FATCA CLASSIFICATION data store with the following parameters:

l ‘US Indicia Present’ flag updated to ‘N’.

l  ‘FATCA classification’ as ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’

l ‘Tracking Required’ flag updated to ‘Y’

10. The system inserts a record into FATCA CLASSIFICATION LOG data store with the reason for logging as ‘CHANGE-US Indicia Not Present’ and ‘US Indicia Updated’ flag set to ‘Y’.

Case 3: The customer is a Bank.

 

11. The system check whether the customer record exist in the FATCA classification data store. If the record does not exist, then a record is inserted into FATCA Classification data store with the following parameters.

l ‘US Indicia Present’ flag set to ‘Y’

l ‘FATCA classification’ set as ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’

l ‘Tracking Required’ flag set to ‘Y’

12. The system inserts a record into FATCA CLASSIFICATION LOG data store with the reason for logging as ‘Financial Institution – Due Diligence’ and ‘US Indicia Updated’ flag will be set to ‘Y’.

13. If the record is already present and the FATCA classification is maintained as ‘Reportable’ in ‘FATCA Parameters Maintenance’ then, the system checks the document status for ‘Recalcitrant’ Flag.

If the expected submission date is prior to the current date and actual submission date in document checklist is null, the ‘Recalcitrant’ flag will be updated to ‘Y’.

The system inserts a record into FATCA CLASSIFICATION LOG data store with the reason for logging as ‘CHANGE-Document not submitted’ and ‘Recalcitrant Updated’ flag will be set to ‘Y’.

If the document expiry date is prior to the current date in document check list, the ‘Recalcitrant’ flag will be updated to ‘Y’.

The system inserts a record into data store with the reason for logging as ‘CHANGE– Document expired’ and ‘Recalcitrant Updated’ flag will be set t ‘Y’.

Note

You can maintain the default classification - 'PENDING CLASSIFICATION' for each type of the customers if they wish to register for FATCA classification.

4.11.2 Automatic Population of Check List for Due Diligence

Oracle FLEXCUBE facilitates linkage of required documents automatically during due diligence. When a customer is classified for ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’ in the Maintaining Customer Type-wise FATCA Parameters (STDFATCA) screen, the system automatically populates the check list for FATCA due diligence.

The system populates the check list automatically for a customer in the following scenarios:

l Saving a new customer from Customer Maintenance and the due diligence check as part of saving results in ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’ FATCA status.

l Modifying an existing customer from Customer Maintenance and the due diligence check as part of saving results in ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’ FATCA status.

l Modifying a customer’s FATCA classification manually from Entity FATCA classification screen to ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’.

l Due diligence batch run on existing customer record returns ‘PENDING CLASSIFICATION’ for a given customer.
