General
* Annual fees
Annual responsibility fees are charged for the first 12 months on incorporation or take-on. In the January of the following year, a further fee is levied to bring the annual fees into alignment with the calendar year. If a structure is formed or taken on in the last quarter of a calendar year, fees will be levied until the end of the following year on a prorated basis.
** Compliance Monitoring fees
Compliance monitoring fees are risk adjusted for any high risk factors such as higher risk activities, or for structures involving certain high profile or politically exposed persons. Where a large structure is owned by a limited number of individuals then monitoring fees can be capped. The fee includes the monitoring of compliance risk and does not include the fees payable in respect of annual file or other regulatory mandated reviews, or the time costs in resolving any matters identified during those reviews.
