CRS 2.0 Framework

Definition

The CRS 2.0 Framework represents an updated version of the Common Reporting Standard, specifically designed to address reporting gaps related to crypto-assets and other new financial products. This international standard mandates financial institutions to collect and exchange information on financial accounts held by foreign tax residents. Its expansion aims to ensure comprehensive tax transparency across a broader spectrum of digital and traditional assets. The framework seeks to prevent tax evasion by closing loopholes present in the original CRS.
