Personal information includes:</p> <ol start="1"> <li>Forename and surname</li> <li>Date of birth</li> <li>Current residential address including country of residence</li> <li>Nationality</li> </ol> <p>This information is stored securely in the Beneficial Ownership Register and is released only when a request for beneficial ownership information is made to the Beneficial Ownership Register.</p> <p>In addition, and solely for the purpose of verification of the above information, Regulation 21 of SI 110 of 2019 and Sections 52 and 63 of the Investment Limited Partnership (Amendment) Act 2020 (the 2020 Act) obliges CFV to provide a PPS number (or CBI Reference Number for non-PPS number holders) to facilitate the Central Bank verifying the Forename, Surname and Date of Birth of each beneficial owner.</p> <p>The mechanism to verify this information is to check the PPS number, Forename, Surname and Date of Birth of the beneficial owner against the Department of Social Protection (DSP) database of PPS numbers. To do so the Central Bank shares the PPS number, the forename, surname and DOB of the beneficial owner to the DSP via electronic and secure means. The Central Bank has entered into a data sharing agreement with the DSP for the purposes of governing and monitoring this arrangement.</p> <p>Where a beneficial owner(s) has/have not been assigned an Irish PPS number, but the individual(s) has/have been previously obtained a CBI reference number from the Central Bank, the corresponding CBI Reference Number obtained may be provided for this purpose.</p> <p>In the case of beneficial owners who have not been assigned a PPS number, nor a CBI Reference Number, a Declaration as to Verification of Identity must be provided to the Central Bank in order for the Central Bank to provide the beneficial owner with a CBI Reference Number.</p> <p>Personal information collected as part of this process includes:</p> <ol start="1"> <li>Forename and Surname</li> <li>Date of Birth</li> <li>Nationality</li> <li>Current Residential Address</li> <li>Email</li> </ol> <p>The mechanism to verify this information is to check the CBI Reference number, Forename, Surname and Date of Birth of the beneficial owner against other personal data collected by the Central Bank of Ireland in the course of performing its statutory functions and described elsewhere in the Data Privacy Statement.</p> <p>Regulations 24 and 25 of SI 110 of 2019 and Sections 55, 56 and 63 of the 2020 Act provide for two types of access to the beneficial ownership information in the Beneficial Ownership Register – “unrestricted” and “restricted” access.</p> <p>Only certain information contained in the Beneficial Ownership Register is available to members of the public who can demonstrate a legitimate interest in requiring access to the information and designated persons in accordance with Regulation 25 of SI 110 of 2019 (as amended by S.I. 308 of 2023), and Sections 56 and 63 of the 2020 Act. The Central Bank will retain records in relation to each decision made by the Registrar in respect of permitting or refusing access to information held on the Central Register for a period of 5 years from the date of the record’s creation.</p> <p>A designated person is defined in Section 25 of the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing) Act 2010, as amended by the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing) (Amendment) Act 2018. They include financial institutions, accountants, auditors, tax advisers, legal professionals, and dealers in expensive goods (such as houses, cars, jewellery, etc.). Designated persons are required to conduct background information checks on individuals or entities they enter into a financial transaction or a business relationship with under Anti-Money laundering legislation. S.I. 110 of 2019 and the 2020 Act requires, inter alia, that when a designated person enters into an occasional transaction with a CFV, the CFV shall provide certain beneficial ownership information to the designated person and the designated person may access beneficial ownership information in the Beneficial Ownership Register.</p> <p>This information is ‘restricted’ or limited to:</p> <ul> <li>The name of the CFV</li> <li>Beneficial Owner(s) - Name; Nationality; Country of Residence; Month and Year of Birth; Nature of Beneficial Ownership held</li> </ul> <p>Where the beneficial owner is a minor (i.e. under 18 years of age) their details are exempt in normal course from access by designated persons and individuals who can demonstrate a legitimate interest.
