Compliance and Due Diligence |
|
|
Why do we need to conduct relevant investigations
and services? |
|
The "Know Your
Customer" and "Customer Due Diligence" global compliance
standards currently apply not only to new customers, but
also to ongoing customers. The Company's compliance
responsibilities include management data collection, proper
analysis, and updating the ongoing due diligence risk score. |
As a
comprehensive Business Center Service Provider, facing the
challenge of meeting the ever-changing regulatory
environment today, the Company complies with the regulations
established by the United Kingdom FCO and will regularly
obtain the latest information from you, including business
information, company registration information, and the
information obtained from the third-party business
investigation agency commissioned by the company is compared
to meet the minimum inspection limit required by the current
regulations. |
All the obtained
information is only for use by the Company, and relevant
disclosure will be made by any authorized law enforcement
personnel within the United Kingdom. |
Hedi Lee
Enterprise Group is very concerned about the identity of the
customer and whether it is the ultimate beneficiary.
Due to the current emergence of financial crime methods, as
a responsible service provider, the Company will strengthen
its management and supervision to avoid such as financial
fraud and financial crime. As these usually involve
obtaining money or property illegally, and/or obtaining
benefits from it through deception or illegal means.
In today’s complex global economic environment, financial
crimes take many forms, such as money laundering, sanctions
violations, fraud, tax evasion, terrorist financing,
bribery, and corruption. |
|
|
The Ultimate Beneficiary belongs to the Holding
Company. Do I still need to disclose Owner? |
|
Under the laws of
the United Kingdom currently, the Company only needs you to
provide information on the beneficial owners of current
shareholders who hold 25% or more of the shares.
However, since the UK is still a member of the European
Union, and in accordance with the provisions of EU law
2006/70/EC, the company still needs to make relevant records
in order to exchange information with other economic and
administrative regional entities. |
In addition, for
9 types of companies proposed by various countries, namely
banking, insurance (including insurance agents), shipping,
fund management, financing and leasing, headquarters
business, distribution and service centers, holding
companies and intellectual property, all with additional
controls, customers need to make further customer due
diligence before they can continue their services in the
next year. |

How to face Financial Sanctions? |
|
Financial
Sanctions are a policy tool used by National Governments and
Organisation gencies such as the United Nations and the
European Union to limit or prevent potential security
threats, or to require countries to implement concerted
actions to comply with recognized international standards.
Financial Sanctions help to stop crimes such as terrorism,
drug trafficking, and arms trading by restricting banks from
doing business with specific individuals, companies,
countries, or regions that have been placed on the
Treasury’s Office of Overseas Assets Control (OFAC) of
United States of America and other sanctions lists of
activity. |
The Company will
compare the information obtained through the entrusted
third-party business investigation agency in order to check
whether you are financially sanctioned. |
|
|
Why do customers need to pay attention to any
Financial Crimes? |
|
As global
connections are getting closer, a large amount of
information is transmitted in near real time, allowing
business center service operators to provide customers with
convenient services, but the opportunities for criminals to
abuse the financial system have also increased, and fraud
and financial crimes have also become It is more complicated
and organized, so it is our responsibility to be alert and
take active measures to protect customers. |
