Analysis of the 2014 FATCA GIIN Registration Lists

excerpted from International Financial Law Prof Blog ...

Haydon Perryman and I have sifted through the GIIN lists of June through December.  I present Part 1 initial analysis below.  Part 2 on Thursday. 

By the way, the 3rd edition of my Lexis Guide to FATCA Compliance will be out soon with substantial more analysis – 1,200 pages over 54 chapters.  Over 50 FATCA compliance experts from tier 1 institutions, former government officials, and professional firms have contributed to create this detailed and robust guide, filled with numerous practical examples and several chapters written specifically for the non-legal, compliance operations officer.  No filler pages of publicly available documents and regurgitated regulations – it’s all beef.  See the Lexis website to order a copy of this 3rd edition.
