Subject: Compliance with FATCA Regulation
The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) is a US Regulation which requires all Foreign Financial Institutions (FFIs) across countries to identify and report all accounts owned by ‘US Tax Payers’ to the relevant regulators.
The US has partnered with over 120 countries (including Israel) by signing Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) which makes it simpler as well as mandatory under local legislation for FFIs based in the partner countries to comply with the requirements under FATCA. You can also find more information about the IGAs at:

The IBI Group has registered all its FFI entities on the FATCA portal maintained by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and has successfully obtained unique Global Intermediary Identifier Numbers (GIIN) for each FFI entity. These have been listed on the IRS portal and can be accessed at:

IBI has prepared FATCA Self-Certifications (latest W8 formats released by IRS in 2016) for all relevant legal entities in the group. These have been uploaded to the IBI’s website and can be accessed here:
