3 Introduction There are many different types of nonprofit organizations, corporations and entities. They come in all shapes and sizes and have many different civic, social and philanthropic purposes. You may be asked to open accounts for hunting clubs, churches, causes and other different concerns around your area. Unfortunately, terrorists also use nonprofit organizations to finance many of their operations. Because of this, we are careful in the way that we open the accounts. 3
4 Many Americans open personal accounts and just have the checks made payable to them and that is fine. For example, 1975 High School Reunion could open it in a person s name and the checks could be made payable to Cindy Jones and be opened as a personal account. If the checks come into the 1975 High School Reunion then the account must be opened as an entity account. 4

72 Step Four: Customer Due Diligence Customer Due Diligence on NGOs-FFIEC BSA Exam Manual
73 Objective. Assess the adequacy of the bank s systems to manage the risks associated with accounts of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and charities, and management s ability to implement effective due diligence, monitoring, and reporting systems. NGOs are private nonprofit organizations that pursue activities intended to serve the public good. NGOs may provide basic social services, work to relieve suffering, promote the interests of the poor, bring citizen concerns to governments, encourage political participation, protect the environment, or undertake community development to serve the needs of citizens, organizations, or groups in one or more of the communities that the NGO operates. An NGO can be any nonprofit organization that is independent from government. NGOs can range from large regional, national, or international charities to community-based self-help groups. NGOs also include research institutes, churches, professional associations, and lobby groups. NGOs typically depend, in whole or in part, on charitable donations and voluntary service for support. 73
74 Risk Factors Because NGOs can be used to obtain funds for charitable organizations, the flow of funds both into and out of the NGO can be complex, making them susceptible to abuse by money launderers and terrorists. The U.S. Treasury issued guidelines to assist charities in adopting practices to reduce the risk of terrorist financing or abuse. Anti-Terrorist Financing Guidelines: Voluntary Best Practices for U.S.-Based Charities, September 2006, is available at 74
75 Risk Mitigation To assess the risk of NGO customers, a bank should conduct adequate due diligence on the organization. In addition to required CIP information, due diligence for NGOs should focus on other aspects of the organization, such as the following: Purpose and objectives of their stated activities. Geographic locations served (including headquarters and operational areas). Organizational structure. Donor and volunteer base. Funding and disbursement criteria (including basic beneficiary information). Recordkeeping requirements. Its affiliation with other NGOs, governments, or groups. Internal controls and audits. 75
76 For accounts that bank management considers to be higher risk, stringent documentation, verification, and transaction monitoring procedures should be established. NGO accounts that are at higher risk for BSA/AML concerns include those operating or providing services internationally, conducting unusual or suspicious activities, or lacking proper documentation. EDD for these accounts should include: Evaluating the principals. Obtaining and reviewing the financial statements and audits. Verifying the source and use of funds. Evaluating large contributors or grantors of the NGO. Conducting reference checks. 76
77 What is the purpose of the organization? Civic Benefit or Tragedy Political Campaign Public Fund Other What geographic locations are served? County/Parish State United States International How is your organization structured? Officers with regular meetings Board Steering Committee Other Who is the volunteer base? Local individuals in county Statewide volunteers National volunteers International volunteers Where does the funding come from? Local donations Statewide donations National donations International donations 77
78 Beneficial Ownership The second element of CDD requires financial institutions to identify and verify the beneficial owners of legal entity customers. In this NPRM, FinCEN proposes a new requirement that financial institutions identify the natural persons who are beneficial owners of legal entity customers, subject to certain exemptions. The definition of beneficial owner proposed requires that the person identified as a beneficial owner be a natural person (as opposed to another legal entity). A financial institution must satisfy this requirement by obtaining at the time a new account is opened a standard certification form (attached hereto as Appendix A) directly from the individual opening the new account on behalf of the legal entity customer. 78
79 Financial institutions would be required to verify the identity of beneficial owners consistent with their existing CIP practices. However, FinCEN is not proposing to require that financial institutions verify that the natural persons identified on the form are in fact the beneficial owners. In other words, the requirement focuses on verifying the identity of the beneficial owners, but does not require the verification of their status as beneficial owners. This proposed requirement states minimum standards. 79
80 Ownership Prong: Each individual, if any, who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, owns 25 percent or more of the equity interests of a legal entity customer; and 80
81 Control Prong: An individual with significant responsibility to control, manage, or direct a legal entity customer, including (A) An executive officer or senior manager (e.g., a Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Managing Member, General Partner, President, Vice President, or Treasurer); or (B) Any other individual who regularly performs similar functions. 81
82 FinCEN s expectation is that a financial institution will identify the natural person or persons who exercise control of a legal entity customer through a 25% or greater ownership interest, regardless of how many corporate parents or holding companies removed the natural person is from the legal entity customer. 82
83 Each prong is intended to be an independent test. Under the ownership prong (i.e., clause (1)), a financial institution must identify each individual who owns 25 percent or more of the equity interests. Accordingly, a financial institution would be required to identify no more than four individuals under this prong, and, if no one individual owns 25 percent or more of the equity interests, then the financial institution may identify no individuals under the ownership prong. Under the control prong (clause (2)), a financial institution must identify one individual. In cases where an individual is both a 25 percent owner and meets the definition for control, that same individual could be identified as a beneficial owner under both prongs. 83
84 Equity Interests Consequently, the term equity interests should be interpreted broadly to apply to a variety of different legal structures and ownership situations. In short, equity interests refers to an ownership interest in a business entity. Examples of equity interests include shares or stock in a corporation, membership interests in a limited liability company, and other similar ownership interests in a legal entity. 84
85 directly or indirectly Moreover, the phrase directly or indirectly in the ownership prong of the definition is intended to make clear that where a legal entity customer is owned by (or controlled through) one or more other legal entities, the proposed rule requires customers to look through those other legal entities to determine which natural persons own 25 percent or more of the equity interests of the legal entity customer. FinCEN expects financial institutions to be able to rely generally on the representations of the customer when answering the financial institution s questions about the individual persons behind the legal entity, including whether someone identified as a beneficial owner is in fact a beneficial owner under this definition. 85
86 The proposed requirement would apply to all legal entity customers, including legal entities that open a foreign private banking account that meets the definition in (m). However, the new requirements would not apply to the beneficial owner of funds or assets in a payable-through account of the type described in (b)(1)(iii), since the owner of such funds or assets does not have an account relationship with the covered financial institution. In such instances, compliance with the information requirements included in (b)(1)(iii) will suffice, and the particulars of this new requirement, such as use of a certification form with respect to the beneficial owner of funds or assets in a payable-through account, would not apply. 86
87 The definition of legal entity customer, which is also relevant to the notion of the exemptions. FinCEN proposes to define legal entity customers to include corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships or other similar business entities (whether formed under the laws of a state or of the United States or a foreign jurisdiction), that open a new account after the implementing date of the regulation 87
88 FinCEN would interpret this to include all entities that are formed by a filing with the Secretary of State (or similar office), as well as general partnerships and unincorporated nonprofit associations. It does not include trusts other than those that might be created through a filing with a state (e.g., statutory business trusts). 88
89 Exemptions from beneficial ownership requirement Customers Exempt from CIP Same as CIP except existing customers (financial institutions regulated by a federal functional regulator, publicly held companies traded on certain US stock exchanges, domestic government agencies and instrumentalities and certain legal entities that exercise governmental authority) Plus some new exemptions Existing and New Customers Applies to legal entity customer that open a new account after the implementation date 89
90 Plus these new exemptions FinCEN proposes that the following entities also be exempt from the beneficial ownership requirement when opening a new account because their beneficial ownership information is generally available from other credible sources: An issuer of a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or that is required to file reports under Section 15(d) of that Act; Any majority-owned domestic subsidiary of any entity whose securities are listed on a U.S. stock exchange; An investment company, as defined in Section 3 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that is registered with the SEC under that Act; 90
91 Continued exemptions An investment adviser, as defined in Section 202(a)(11) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, that is registered with the SEC under that Act; An exchange or clearing agency, as defined in Section 3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that is registered under Section 6 or 17A of that Act; Any other entity registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities and Exchange Act of A registered entity, commodity pool operator, commodity trading advisor, retail foreign exchange dealer, swap dealer, or major swap participant, each as defined in section 1a of the Commodity Exchange Act, that is registered with the CFTC; A public accounting firm registered under section 102 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; and A charity or nonprofit entity that is described in Sections 501(c), 527, or 4947(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, that has not been denied tax exempt status, and that is required to and has filed the most recently required annual information return with the Internal Revenue Service. 91
92 APPENDIX A CERTIFICATION REGARDING BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF LEGAL ENTITY CUSTOMERS I. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS What is this form? To help the government fight financial crime, federal regulation requires certain financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information about the beneficial owners of legal entity customers. Legal entities can be abused to disguise involvement in terrorist financing, money laundering, tax evasion, corruption, fraud, and other financial crimes. Requiring the disclosure of key individuals who ultimately own or control a legal entity (i.e., the beneficial owners) helps law enforcement investigate and prosecute these crimes. 92
93 Who has to complete this form? This form must be completed by the person opening a new account on behalf of a legal entity with any of the following U.S. financial institutions: (i) a bank or credit union; (ii) a broker or dealer in securities; (iii) a mutual fund; (iv) a futures commission merchant; or (v) an introducing broker in commodities. For the purposes of this form, a legal entity includes a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, and any other similar business entity formed in the United States or a foreign country. 93
94 What information do I have to provide? This form requires you to provide the name, address, date of birth and social security number (or passport number or other similar information, in the case of foreign persons) for the following individuals (i.e., the beneficial owners): Each individual, if any, who owns, directly or indirectly, 25 percent or more of the equity interests of the legal entity customer (e.g., each natural person that owns 25 percent or more of the shares of a corporation); and An individual with significant responsibility for managing the legal entity customer (e.g., a Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Managing Member, General Partner, President, Vice President or Treasurer). The financial institution may also ask to see a copy of a driver's license or other identifying document for each beneficial owner listed on this form. 94
