Organic Act Governing the Establishment of the Financial Supervisory Commission Article 5

In carrying out a financial examination, the FSC and its subordinate agencies may, as necessary: (1) require a financial institution, a related party thereof, or a public company to produce relevant account books, documents, electronic files, and other such materials; or (2) notify an examinee to appear at a designated office for questioning.An examinee who believes that the examination personnel have carried out their examination in an inappropriate manner may request that the matter be dealt with by the FSC or a subordinate agency thereof.When an examinee submits materials, the examiner shall issue a receipt. Unless the materials are related to a suspected financial crime, the examiner shall return the materials to the examinee within ten working days of the date on which the materials are submitted in full.In a case involving suspected financial crime, the FSC and any subordinate agency thereof may present the facts of the case to a prosecutor in seeking permission from the latter to file a motion in the court of jurisdiction for issuance of a search warrant. Once the search warrant has been issued, the FSC or its subordinate agency may, accompanied by judicial police authorities, enter and search the suspected hiding place of the relevant account books, documents, electronic files, and other such materials or evidence. No one other than the parties mentioned above may take part in the search. The personnel who conduct a search shall transport all relevant materials and evidence obtained during the search to the FSC or a subordinate agency thereof, where it shall be handled in accordance with the law.Examiners dispatched by the FSC or a subordinate agency thereof to investigate financial crime shall, when carrying out their official duties, display proof of identity and documentation to prove that they are acting in an official capacity. If an examiner fails to display the required items, the examinee and related parties may refuse to allow the examination.The scope of the term "related party" as used in paragraph 1 includes the following:1.Responsible persons and employees of financial institutions.2.Affiliated enterprises (as defined in the Company Act under Articles 369-1, 369-2, 369-3, 369-9, and 369-11) of financial institutions.Where an examinee obstructs, avoids, or refuses to allow an examination of the type set forth under paragraph 1, refuses to furnish relevant account books, documents, electronic files, or other such materials, or refuses without legitimate reason to appear for questioning, the FSC or a subordinate agency is empowered, unless another law provides to the contrary, to impose an administrative fine of not less than NT$50,000 and not more than NT$250,000, and may impose consecutive penalties until the examinee cooperates with the examination, appears for questioning, or furnishes the relevant account books, documents, electronic files, or other such materials.
