Certain U.S. Federal

EU Directive on the
Taxation of Savings Income:
|
|
The EC Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the
taxation of savings income, as amended (the
Directive
), has been repealed from January 1, 2017, in the case of Austria, and from January 1, 2016, in the case of all other EU Member States (subject to on-going
requirements to fulfill administrative obligations such as the reporting and exchange of information relating to, and accounting for withholding taxes on, payments made before those dates). The repeal is meant to prevent overlap between the
Directive and a new automatic exchange of information regime implemented under Council Directive 2011/16/EU on Administrative Cooperation in the field of Taxation (as amended by Council Directive 2014/107/EU). Council Directive 2011/16/EU (as
amended) effectively implements the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Developments common reporting standard on automatic exchange of financial account information in tax matters, requires governments to obtain detailed account
information from financial institutions and exchange that information automatically with other jurisdictions annually. Council Directive 2011/16/EU (as amended) is generally broader in scope than the Directive, although it does not impose
withholding taxes. The agreements with non-EU countries on the basis of the Directive are being revised to be aligned with Council Directive 2011/16/EU (as amended). See EU Directive on the Taxation of Savings Income in the accompanying
prospectus.
