9 IRS Section 871(m) introduction IRS Section 871(m) final and proposed regulations were introduced by US Treasury and IRS in order to implement a tax reporting and withholding regime on dividend-equivalent payments. The regulation is in force since 1 January Along with FATCA, Section 871(m) was embedded in the HIRE Act of 2010, and has to be implemented by financial institutions globally. The regulation affects transactions in derivative products that have either U.S. sourced equity underlying's or indices containing U.S. sourced equity constituents giving rise to FDAP income. From an underlying reference data standpoint, Section 871(m) raises two main challenges: 1 Identifying the financial instruments (products) that are in scope or potentially in scope SIX provides the data on instrument level tax status 2 Implementing the required IRS reporting and withholding SIX provides the data required to calculate dividend equivalent amounts

10 IRS Notice Phase-in period for 871(m) and related withholding provisions: 2017: Withholding begins on delta-one transactions only Good faith standard applies to withholding agents and taxpayers determining 871(m) amount Simplified method of determining combined transactions (applies to withholding agents only) 2018: Withholding begins on remaining transactions below delta-one Good faith standard with respect to non-delta-one transactions 2020: Exemption on certain Exchange-traded notes ends

11 IRS 871(m) Final Regulations published (m) Final Regulations - Highlights: Effective date: Delta calculation for listed options the delta of an option contract that is listed on a regulated exchange is the delta of that option at the close of business day before the date of issuance. On the date an option contract is listed for the first time, the delta is the delta of that option at the close of business on the date of issuance. Qualified indices for new indices a test whether an index is a qualified index has to take place at the first date created We are analyzing the Final Regulations and will adopt our rule set and processes accordingly.

12 Possible 871(m) Equity-linked instruments ELIs: Futures Traded Options Warrants Mini-Futures Structured Securities Convertible Bonds Does the instrument have a U.S. equity as an underlying security? Yes Is the underlying an 871(m) qualified index? Does the instrument qualify as a Simple Contract? Yes Delta 1.0 at issuance for minimum 1 underlying? No Yes Complex Contract Number of shares in initial hedge for minimum 1 underlying Instrument qualifies as Specified for 871(m) withholding and reporting SIX data Data provided by issuer Specified for 871(m) reporting No Yes Yes - In scope - In scope; confirmed - Potentially in scope - Potentially in scope; confirmed - Exempt qualified index - Exempt qualified index; confirmed - Exempt on IRS exception list for ETNs *NEW*

30 MiFID II affects the whole value chain CLIENT SEGMENTATION ADVICE / SALE ORDER EXECUTION CLIENT REPORTING Retail / Professional / Eligible Counterparty (companies LEI, domicile, sector codes) Financial situation (income, assets, liabilities) Investment objective (investment horizon, risk profile, ability to bear losses, experience & knowledge) Product Suitability, appropriateness, execution only (complex / noncomplex classification, target market criteria, risk indicators, product costs Product Intervention Product Documentation (UCITS KIIDs PRIIPs KID, Prospectus) Pre-trade transparency (ESMA s liquidity assessment, trading suspensions, waivers) Post-trade obligations (Transaction reporting (MIFID II reportable instrument flag, deferrals, instruments reference data) Best Trading Venue Portfolio reporting (market value, fair value, benchmarks, interest and dividends payments, corporate actions) Leveraged instrument indication Statement of assets (MIFID II eligible instruments)

31 Advisory must ensure that retail investors are only offered investment products suitable to their risk appetite KEY DATA SETS Target market content on instrument level Complex/non-complex classification Trading suspensions published by trading venues / regulators Product risk classification Product cost breakdown Best execution Manufacturers & distributors need a standard form for information exchange

32 How should manufacturers define a target market for their products? ESMA CP draft guidelines 2016/1436 ( ) mention 6 categories: The type of client to whom the product is targeted; Knowledge and experience Financial situation, with a focus on the ability to bear losses; Risk tolerance and compatibility of the risk/reward profile of the product with the target market Clients objectives Clients needs Additional categories should be added if, in the manufacturer s view, they are important to describe the product.

33 What are the target market considerations for a distributor? should define the target market in a more granular way (manufacturer definition + client knowledge) should conduct a thorough analysis of the characteristics of its client base distributors may not just rely on the manufacturer s target market but must consider how the definition fits to their client base. distributors should decide which products are going to be actively offered to certain groups of clients the nature of the products should be taken into account, particularly products characterized by complexity/risk features

34 Target market assessment is essential to a common, uniform & consistent application of product governance under MiFID II CLIENT TYPE PRODUCT SUITABILITY PRODUCT FEATURES CLIENT DATA INVESTOR NEEDS / OBJECTIVES TARGET MARKET ASSESSMENT PRODUCT DATA VENUE PRODUCT INTERVENTION / SUSPENSION BEST EXECUTION POLICY INVESTMENT DECISION APPROVED ON REQUEST DECLINED

35 Key takeaways for successful product governance Manufacturers need to define the target market if they want their products to be distributed successfully Distributors must ensure that their distribution strategy is consistent with the identified target market including appropriate policies and procedures to ensure that the product or service complies with product governance rules reviews of their investment advice and execution policies on a min. yearly basis Correct and comprehensive assessment and disclosure of all risks related to the target market
