Clearstream Banking S.A. and Clearstream Banking AG have registered with the IRS as Model 1 FFIs and obtained Global Intermediary Identification Numbers. They have also renewed their Qualified Intermediary agreements with the IRS. Clearstream will implement FATCA withholding and reporting responsibilities for applicable payments. Customer account structures and certifications will need to be adapted to incorporate FATCA requirements by segregating accounts and indicating FATCA statuses.
The IRS makes small changes to many of their tax forms every year. The changes may just entail a box here or a line there, but all kinds of speculation - and wagering - precede the release of the changes. Here are the forms that have changed.

4. 4
Clearstream Banking status

Clearstream Banking S.A. (CBL) and Clearstream Banking AG (CBF)
QI agreement renewed with the IRS
Clearstream Banking will therefore endorse FATCA withholding responsibilities
whenever applicable as well as primary NRA and back-up withholding
responsibilities along with 1042s/1099 reporting obligations.
February 2015
6. 6
What is Clearstream timeline?
FATCA came into effect 1 July 2014
As Clearstream must comply to IGA Model 1, the deadlines in relation to «pre-existing»
accounts are as follows:
As of 1 July 2014, must withhold FATCA penalty tax on all withholdable payments
credited to accounts that have been certified by customers as being FATCA non-
compliant (whether for its own assets or for non-compliant third-party assets);
As of 1 July 2014 until 30 June 2016, must complete the due diligence exercise and
renewal of all account certification;
As 1 July 2016, must apply the FATCA presumption rule to all undocumented
accounts, treat them as FATCA non-compliant and apply FATCA withholding tax on all
withholdable payments.
February 2015

How will it affect customer
procedures?
February 2015
8. 8
How will it affect customers procedures?
February 2015
FATCA adds a new dimension to the current QI regime
Additional information and requirements must be taken into consideration for withholding and
reporting purposes
Account structures adapted and new structures developed to meet these requirements in the
most efficient way
Certification for US tax purposes will have to be renewed accordingly:
Withholding Statement*
IRS Forms (latest version) whenever applicable
* CBF (Cascade and 6xxxx accounts) or CBL version, as appropriate
9. 9
How will it affect customers procedures?
February 2015
First phase of certification renewal (A14071)
Customers invited to renew their certification to include FATCA requirements are
Foreign account holder (own assets) being FATCA compliant or FATCA exempted
U.S. account holder
Qualified Intermediary type A
Second phase of certification renewal (A15030)
Customers being FATCA compliant account holders acting on behalf of third parties, and that are
either
Qualified Intermediary type B – endorsing primary withholding responsibilities but not backup
withholding and 1099 reporting
Qualified Intermediary type C – neither endorsing primary withholding responsibilities nor backup
withholding and 1099 reporting
Non-Qualified Intermediary - neither endorsing primary withholding and 1042s reporting
responsibilities nor backup withholding and 1099 reporting
10. 10
Account structure and certification renewal
February 2015
As a general statement,
Account structure
remains as similar as possible to what we have been working with, adapted to incorporate the
additional FATCA layer
new account structure developped whenever
aims at keeping it as simple as possible and offer a «one-time» FATCA certification at the account
level whenever possible
offers an omnibus account structure for customers holding for FATCA non-compliant recipients, or
being unable to segregate before payment its underlying recipients according to their FATCA
status.
! Burden and risk related to “per payment” allocation for both FATCA and QI purposes
11. 11
Account structure and certification renewal
February 2015
To be taken into consideration at account level whenever applicable,
on top of the Chapter 3 requirements that remain in effect:
FATCA recipient code and FATCA exemption codes
• For reporting purposes, will have to be provided whenever applicable
• “One-time” certification within the Withholding Statement, offered whenever possible
• “Per payment” FATCA allocation available
12. 12
Account structure and certification renewal
February 2015
U.S. payee pool
• Aim: avoid duplicate reporting between (1) FATCA “U.S. specified persons” reporting (Form 8966
or equivalent sent to local tax authorities of IGA countries) and (2) Chapter 61 reporting (Form
1099) to U.S. non-exempt recipients
• PFFIs1 or RDCFFIs2 eligible under certain conditions to include documented U.S. non-exempt
recipients in a “U.S. payee pool”.
such FFI that does not endorse backup withholding and 1099 reporting responsibilities no longer
has to provide payee specific information to the upstream withholding agent;
these U.S. recipients must no longer be segregated on a designated account,
election to perform U.S. payee pool reporting must be selected in the IRS Form W-8IMY provided
1. Participating Foreign Financial Institutions
2. Registered-deemed compliant Foreign Financial Institutions
13. 13
Account structure and certification renewal
February 2015
U.S. payee specific
• Recipients that are US specified persons for whom 1099 reporting is due
Must be segregated on a specific account (no mix with any other type of recipients)
W-9 IRS Form must be provided with all necessary information
