A controlling ownership interest refers to owning directly and/or indirectly more than 25 percent of the legal person’s shares or capital; a financial leasing enterprise may ask the customer to provide its list of shareholders or other documents to assist in the identification of persons holding controlling ownership interest.B. To the extent where no natural person exerting control through ownership interests is identified under the preceding sub-item or that there is doubt as to whether the person(s) with the controlling ownership interest are the beneficial owner(s), the identity of the natural person(s) (if any) exercising control of the customer through other means.C. Where no natural person is identified under Sub-item A or B above, a financial leasing enterprise shall identify the identity of a natural person who holds the position of senior managing official.(2) For trustees: the identity of the settlor(s), the trustee(s), the trust supervisor, the beneficiaries, and any other natural person(s) exercising ultimate effective control over the trust, or the identity of person(s) in equivalent or similar position.(3) Unless otherwise provided for in the proviso of Subparagraph 3 of Article 6 or where the customer has issued bearer shares, a financial leasing enterprise is not subject to the requirements of identifying and verifying the identity of beneficial owner(s) of a customer set out under Item (3) of Subparagraph 3 hereof, provided the customer or the person having a controlling ownership interest in the customer is:A. a R.O.C government entity;B. an enterprise owned by the R.O.C government;C. a foreign government entity;D. a public company and its subsidiaries;E. an entity listed on a stock exchange outside R.O.C. that is subject to regulatory disclosure requirements of its principal shareholders, and the subsidiaries of such entity;F. a financial institution supervised by the R.O.C. government, and an investment vehicles managed by such institution;G. a financial institution established outside R.O.C. that is subject to and supervised for compliance with AML/CFT requirements consistent with standards set by the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF), and an investment vehicle managed by such institution;H. a fund administered by a R.O.C. government entity; orI. an employee stock ownership trust or an employee savings trust.7. A financial leasing enterprise shall not establish business relationship with a customer before completing the CDD measures. However, a financial leasing enterprise may first obtain information on the identity of the customer and its beneficial owner(s) and complete verification after the establishment of business relationship, provided that:(1) The ML/TF risks are effectively managed, including adopting risk management procedures with respect to the conditions under which a customer may utilize the business relationship to complete a transaction prior to verification;(2) This is essential not to interrupt the normal conduct of business with the customer; and(3) Verification of the identities of the customer and its beneficial owner(s) will be completed as soon as reasonably practicable after the establishment of business relationship. A financial leasing enterprise shall advise its customer in advance that the business relationship will be terminated if verification cannot be completed as soon as reasonably practicable.8. Where a financial leasing enterprise is unable to complete the required CDD process on a customer, it should consider filing a suspicious transaction report (STR)on money laundering or terrorist financing in relation to the customer.9. If a financial leasing enterprise forms a suspicion of money laundering or terrorist financing and reasonably believes that performing the CDD process will tip-off the customer, it is permitted not to pursue that process and file a STR instead.
