Chapter 1 Introduction

1. Life insurance products of SBI Life Insurance Co., select mutual fund products of SBI Mutual Fund and short listed third party mutual funds, select general insurance products of New India Assurance Co. Ltd. and Credit Card products of SBI Card In April 2008, cross selling was formally extended to cover units in Corporate Accounts Group and Mid-Corporate Group, vide Corporate Centre letter no MCS/08-09/04 dated 17th April 2008, as follows: With the objective of further growing the cross selling business and fee based income at our branches we are to leverage the banks connections with the various CAG/MCG/large SME units to establish/increase cross sell of our retail PB products as well as para-banking products like life insurance, general insurance, mutual fund and credit card products to constituents of these units, viz., owners / promoters, directors, employees, related vendors and dealers. This would also make the bank/branch a one stop source of financial services/investment products, thereby contributing to the all-important matter of customer loyalty/stickiness. 2………………………………. 3……………………………….. 4. We shall be glad if the Branch Manager of the nearest Retail Branch and a CIF/ACE calls upon the owners/promoters/Finance Head of the Unit, along with or through the assistance of the Relationship Manager of the CAG branch/office, to explore the opportunities and pursue booking retail banking and para banking business of the Units. Assistance, support of appropriate SBI Mutual Fund, SBI Life and SBI Card personnel should invariably be sought while making presentations for mutual fund, life and cards business. It shall be the responsibility of the PB Business Head and Relationship Manager (CAG) as also the Chief Manager (Cross Selling) who should closely follow up for booking of the business. In cases where retail/para banking business is already garnered, we would like to be advised of specific details as noted below with particulars of business remaining to be tapped or receiving attention, vis-à-vis the potential.

identified branches have commenced selling individual products of SBI Life

Page 16: cif circular

have undergone insurance training and passed the mandatory test.

exchange.

Premium and Renewal Premium ( vide Circulars No.MCS/Cir/08-09/04 dated 8th August 2008 and MCS/08-09/05 dated 10th October 2008 ) To reduce turn around time (TAT) for issuing certificates of insurance and

make available to customer another convenient option of paying premium of

SBI Life, where receipt of payment is issued simultaneously, SBI Life

Insurance Co. has introduced the option of paying the first premium of Group

Swadhan and for payment of SBI Life’s renewal premiums of individual

policies (excluding Lifelong Pension and Top-up amount of ULIPs) for the

Bancassurance channel through Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) mode of Core

Banking platform.

slip (challan) along with a cheque for payment from the customer’s account

(copy enclosed). The pay-in-slip (challan) is designed to provide three copies.

After the transaction is put through, the first copy of the challan is handed

over to the customer as receipt. The second copy is retained as the voucher of

the branch and the third is attached to the proposal form for onward

submission to SBI Life Insurance Co.

29 Guidelines on Anti Money Laundering programme for Insurers (Circular Ref: 043/IRDA/LIFE/AML/MAR-06 31 March 2006) 1. Background: 1.1 The Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 brought into force with effect from 1st July 2005, is applicable to all the financial institutions which include insurance institutions. The application of anti-money laundering measures to non-depository financial institutions generally, and to the insurance companies in particular, has also been emphasized by international regulatory agencies as a key element in combating money laundering. Establishment of anti money laundering programs by financial institutions is one of the central recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force and also forms part of the Insurance Core Principles of the International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS). Accordingly, the Authority has decided to put in place the following regulatory guidelines/instructions to the Insurers, Agents and Corporate agents as part of an Anti Money Laundering Programme (AML) for the insurance sector. 1.2 Insurers offer a variety of products aimed at transferring the financial risk of a certain event from the insured to the insurer. These products include life insurance contracts, annuity contracts, non-life insurance contracts, and health insurance contracts. These products are offered to the public through trained agents of the insurance companies and also through a number of alternate distribution channels like direct marketing, bancassurance etc. The guidelines are therefore of importance to the agents and corporate agents also, to the extent indicated in the guidelines. 1.3 The obligation to establish an anti-money laundering program applies to an insurance company, and not to its agents, and other intermediaries. Hence the responsibility for guarding against insurance products being used to launder unlawfully derived funds or to finance terrorist acts, lies on the insurance company, which develops and bears the risks of its products. 2. What is Money Laundering? 2.1 Money Laundering is moving illegally acquired cash through financial systems so that it appears to be legally acquired. 2.2 There are three common stages of money laundering as detailed below which are resorted to by the launderers and insurance institutions which may unwittingly get exposed to a potential criminal activity while undertaking normal business transactions: - • Placement - the physical disposal of cash proceeds derived from illegal activity;

Page 30: cif circular

30• Layering - separating illicit proceeds from their source by creating complex layers of financial transactions designed to disguise the source of money, subvert the audit trail and provide anonymity; and • Integration - creating the impression of apparent legitimacy to criminally derived wealth. 2.3 If the layering process has succeeded, integration schemes place the laundered proceeds back into the economy in such a way that they re-enter the financial system appearing to be normal business funds. Financial institutions such as insurers are therefore placed with a statutory duty to make a disclosure to the authorized officer when knowing or suspecting that any property, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, representing the proceeds of drug trafficking or of a predicated offence, or was or is intended to be used in that connection is passing through the institution. Such disclosures are protected by law, enabling the person with information to be able to disclose the same without any fear. Insurance institutions likewise need not fear breaching their duty of confidentiality owed to customers. 3. AML Program: In order to discharge the statutory responsibility to detect possible attempts of money laundering or financing of terrorism, every insurer needs to have an AML program which should, at a minimum, include: 3.1 Internal policies, procedures, and controls; 3.2 Appointment of a Principal compliance officer; 3.3 Recruitment and training of employees/agents; 3.4 Internal Control/Audit; The above key elements of the AML programme are discussed in detail below: 3.1 Internal policies, procedures, and controls: Each insurance company has to establish and implement policies, procedures, and internal controls which would also integrate its agents in its anti-money laundering program as detailed below: 3.1.1 Know Your Customer (KYC): Considering the potential threat of usage of the financial services by a money launderer, insurance company should make reasonable efforts to determine the true identity of all customers requesting for its services. Hence effective procedures should be put in place to obtain requisite details for proper identification of new customers. i. A list of documents to be verified at the time of accepting the risk for compliance with KYC requirement for individuals and others is given in Annexure I. It is mandatory to obtain any one of the documents to clearly

Page 31: cif circular

31establish the customer identity consistent with risk profile in respect of all new insurance contracts (Please also see 3.1.3 below). ii. The degree of due diligence to establish KYC could be decided by the insurers where premium is below Rs. 1 lakh per annum. However, premium of Rs. 1 lakh per annum in case of individual policies should be considered as a threshold for exercising detailed due diligence, what ever be the payment mode (Please see 3.1.3 below). iii. Remittance of premium is an important stage of entering into contract, hence, cash transactions need more diligence and care (Please also see para 3.1.8) iv. Customer information should be collected from all relevant sources, including from agents. v. Insurance premium paid by persons other than the person insured should be looked into to establish insurable interest. vi. The insurer should not enter into a contract with a customer whose identity matches with any person with known criminal background or with banned entities and those reported to have links with terrorists or terrorist organizations (A list of such entities would be sent to the insurance companies shortly). vii. Besides verification of identity of the customer at the time of initial issuance of contract, KYC should also be carried out at the claim payout stage and at times when additional top up remittances are inconsistent the customers known profile. 3.1.2 When should KYC be done? i. Knowing New Customers: a. In case of new contracts, KYC should be done before the issue of every new contract. b. In case of non face to face business which includes Tele calling, Internet Marketing, Logging in of business or payment of premiums/lump sums at branches, collection of documentation be completed for premiums exceeding Rs. 1 lakh per person per annum within 15 days of issue of policy. ii. Knowing Existing Customers: It has been decided that the process of AML should be applied for the policies coming into force on or after 01.04.2004. Since Insurers, invariably collect considerable background of the policyholder as also the beneficiary before entering into contracts no major constraints are expected in this exercise, in respect of the existing contracts. KYC in case of existing customers should

Page 32: cif circular

32therefore be carried out based on the limits fixed for new policies on all contracts/relevant transactions in case of the existing polices. 3.1.3 KYC and Risk Profile of the Customer: In the context of the very large base of insurance customers and the significant differences in the extent of risk posed by them, the companies are advised to classify the customer into high risk and low risk, based on the individual’s profile and product profile, to decide upon the extent of due diligence. i. For the purpose of risk categorization, individuals (other than High Net Worth) and entities whose identities and sources of wealth can be easily identified and transactions in whose accounts by and large conform to the known profile may be categorized as low risk. Illustrative examples of low risk customers could be salaried employees whose salary structures are well defined, people belonging to lower economic strata of the society, Government departments and Government owned companies, regulators and statutory bodies etc., In such cases, the policy may require that only the basic requirements of verifying the identity and location of the customer are to be met. Not withstanding above, in case of continuing policies, if the situation warrants, as for example if the customer profile is inconsistent with his investment through top-ups, a re-look on customer profile is to be carried out. ii. For the high risk profiles, like for customers who are non-residents, high net worth individuals, trusts, charities, NGO’s and organisations receiving donations, companies having close family shareholding or beneficial ownership, firms with sleeping partners, politically exposed persons (PEPs), and those with dubious reputation as per available public information who need higher due diligence, KYC and underwriting procedures should ensure higher verification and counter checks. In this connection insurers are also advised to carry out the appropriate level of due diligence keeping the observations at 3.1.5 in view. 3.1.4 Products to be covered: The AML requirements focus on the vulnerability of the products offered by the insurers to any of the process of money laundering. Some vulnerable products are illustrated in Annexure II. Based on the vulnerability criterion and after examining the product and business coverage it has been decided that the following categories of products/business lines may be exempted form the purview of AML requirements: i. Standalone medical/health insurance products. ii. Reinsurance and retrocession contracts where the treaties are between insurance companies for reallocation of risks within the insurance industry and do not involve transactions with customers.

Page 33: cif circular

33iii. Group insurance businesses which are typically issued to a company, financial institution, or association and generally restrict the ability of an individual insured or participant to manipulate its investment. iv. Term life insurance contracts, in view of the absence of cash surrender value and stricter underwriting norms for term policies (especially those with large face amounts) 3.1.5 Sources of Funds: It is imperative to ensure that the insurance being purchased is reasonable. Accordingly, customer’s source of funds, his estimated net worth etc., should be documented properly and the advisor and/or employee shall obtain income proofs as in Annexure III, to establish his need for insurance cover. Proposal form may also have questionnaires/declarations on sources of fund, and details of bank accounts. Large single premiums should be backed by documentation, to establish source of funds. 3.1.6 Defining Suspicious Transactions (including Suspicious Cash Transactions): The AML program envisages submission of Suspicious Transaction Reports (STR)/ Cash Transactions Reports (CTR) to a Financial Intelligence Unit-India (FIU-IND) set up by the Government of India to track possible money laundering attempts and for further investigation and action. It is extremely difficult to give an exhaustive list of suspicious transactions. An illustrative list of such transactions is however, provided in Annexure IV. Suspicious activity monitoring programs should be appropriate to the company and the products it sells. 3.1.7 Reporting of Suspicious Transactions: Insurance companies should report the suspicious transactions immediately on identification. When such transactions are identified post facto the contract, a statement may be submitted to FIU-IND within 3 working days of identification in the prescribed formats. 3.1.8 Monitoring and Reporting of Cash Transactions: With a view to ensuring that premiums are paid out of clearly identifiable sources of funds, it has been decided that remittances of premium by cash should not exceed Rs. 50,000/-. It would be advisable for the companies to evolve even lower thresholds for cash transactions. It is further advised that: i. Premium/proposal deposits beyond Rs. 50,000 should be remitted only through cheques, demand drafts, credit card or any other banking channels. ii. For integrally related transactions, premium amount greater than Rs. 50,000 in a calendar month should be examined more closely for possible angles of

Page 34: cif circular

34money laundering. This limit will apply at an aggregate level considering all the roles of a single person-as a proposer or life assured or assignee. iii. Insurance companies have to report integrally connected cash transactions above Rs. 10 lakhs per month to FIU-IND by 15th of next succeeding month 3.1.9 Verification at the time of redemption/surrender: i. In life insurance business, no payments should be allowed to 3rd parties except in cases like superannuation/gratuity accumulations and payments to legal heirs in case of death benefits. All payments, should be made after due verification of the bona fide beneficiary, through account payee cheques. ii. Free look cancellations needs particular attention of insurer especially in client/agents indulging in free look surrender on more than one occasion. iii. AML checks become more important in case the policy has been assigned by the policyholder to a third party not related to him (except where the assignment is to Banks/FIs/Capital Market intermediaries regulated by IRDA/RBI/SEBI) 3.1.10 Record Keeping: The insurer/agents/corporate agents are required to maintain the records of types of transactions mentioned under Rule 3 of PMLA Rules 2005 and the copies of the Cash/Suspicious Transactions reports submitted to FIU as well as those relating to the verification of identity of clients for a period of 10 years. i. Sharing of information on customers may be permitted between different organisations such as banks, insurance companies, Income tax authorities, local government authorities on request. Records can also be in electronic form. ii. Insurance institutions should implement specific procedures for retaining internal records of transactions both domestic or international, to enable them to comply swiftly with information requests from the competent authorities. Such records must be sufficient to permit reconstruction of individual transactions (including the amounts and types of currency involved (if any) so as to provide, if necessary, evidence for prosecution of criminal activity. In the case of long term insurance, full documentary evidence is usually retained based on material completed at the initiation of the proposal of the contract, together with evidence of processing of the contract up to the point of maturity. iii. Companies should retain the records of those contracts, which have been settled by claim (maturity or death), surrender or cancellation, for a period of at least 10 years after that settlement.

Page 35: cif circular

35 iv. In situation where the records relate to ongoing investigations, or transactions which have been the subject of a disclosure, they should be retained until it is confirmed that the case has been closed where practicable, insurance institutions are requested to seek and retain relevant identification documents for all such transactions and to report the offer of suspicious funds. v. In case of customer identification data obtained through the customer due diligence process, account files and business correspondence should be retained for at least 10 years after the business relationship is ended. 3.1.11 Compliance Arrangements: i. A detailed AML Policy should be drawn up encompassing aspects of Customer acceptance policy, Customer Identification procedure, Monitoring of transactions, Risk management framework as evolved by the insurer. The policy should have the approval of the board and duly filed with IRDA for information. The policy should be reviewed annually and changes effected based on experience. ii. Responsibility on behalf of the agents and corporate agents: The guidelines place the responsibility of a robust AML program on the insurers. Nonetheless, it is necessary that the following steps are taken to strengthen the level of control on the agents and corporate agents engaged by the insurers: a. A list of rules and regulations covering performance of agents and corporate agents must be put in place. A clause should be added making KYC norms mandatory and specific process document can be included as part of the contracts. b. Services of defaulting agents who expose the insurers to AML related risks on multiple occasions should be terminated and the details reported to IRDA for further action. c. Insurance Company when faced with a non-compliant agent or corporate agent should take necessary action to secure compliance, including when appropriate, terminating its business relationship with such an agent/corporate agent. 3.2 Appointment of Principal Compliance Officer: 3.2.1 Appointment: The companies should designate a Principal Compliance Officer under AML rules. The name of the principal compliance officer should be communicated to IRDA and FIU immediately.

Page 36: cif circular

36 3.2.2 Responsibilities: i. The Principal Compliance Officer should ensure that the Board approved AML program is being implemented effectively, including monitoring compliance by the company’s insurance agents with their obligations under the program; ii. He should ensure that employees and agents of the insurance company have appropriate resources and are well trained to address questions regarding the application of the program in light of specific facts. 3.3 Recruitment and Training of employees/agents 3.3.1 As most part of the insurance business is through agents/corporate agents which brings in non face to face business relationships with the policyholders, the selection process of agents/corporate agents should be monitored carefully. The committee monitoring the agents should monitor sales practices followed by agents and ensure that if any unfair practice is being reported then action is taken after due investigation; Periodic risk management reviews should be conducted to ensure company's strict adherence to laid down process and strong ethical and control environment. Insurance companies should have adequate screening procedures when hiring employees. Instruction Manuals on the procedures for selling insurance products, customer identification, record-keeping, acceptance and processing of insurance proposals, issue of insurance policies should be set out. 3.3.2 The concept of AML should be part of in-house training curriculum for agents. 3.3.3 The following training requirements are considered essential based on the class of employees. i. New employees: A general appreciation of the background to money laundering, and the subsequent need for identifying and reporting of any suspicious transactions to the appropriate designated point should be provided to all new employees who will be dealing with customers or their transactions, irrespective of the level of seniority. ii. Sales/Advisory staff: Members of staff who are dealing directly with the public (whether as members of staff or agents) are the first point of contact with potential money launderers and their efforts are therefore vital to the strategy in the fight against money laundering. It is vital that “front-line” staff is made aware of the insurance institution’s policy for dealing with non-regular customers particularly where large transactions are involved, and the need for extra vigilance in these cases.

Page 37: cif circular

37iii. Processing staff: Those members of staff who receive completed proposals and cheques for payment of the single premium contribution must receive appropriate training in the processing and verification procedures. iv. Administration/Operations supervisors and managers: A higher level of instruction covering all aspects of money laundering procedures should be provided to those with the responsibility for supervising or managing staff. v. Ongoing training: It will also be necessary to make arrangements for refresher training at regular intervals to ensure that staff does not forget their responsibilities. This might be best achieved by a twelve or six-monthly review of training. Timing and content of training packages for various sectors of staff will need to be adapted by individual insurance institutions for their own needs. vi. Records of training imparted to staff in the various categories detailed above should be maintained. 3.4 Internal Control/Audit: Insurance companies’ internal audit/inspection departments should verify on a regular basis, compliance with policies, procedures and controls relating to money laundering activities. The reports should specifically comment on the robustness of the internal policies and processes in this regard and make constructive suggestions where necessary, to strengthen the policy and implementation aspects. Exception reporting under AML policy should be done to Audit Committee of the Board. 4. The above guidelines on establishment of an effective AML regime would be effective from 1st August 2006. Insurance Companies are therefore required to initiate various steps on the lines indicated above and file their AML policies with IRDA latest by 1st July 2006 Yours faithfully, C.R. Muralidharan Member (Finance)

Page 65: cif circular

654. Code of Conduct for AMFI Certified Employees

The relevant extract from AMFI Guidelines and Norms for Intermediaries

dated 19th February 2002 is reproduced below, for adherence by all

concerned:

1………..

2………..

3.1 Take necessary steps to ensure that the clients’ interest is protected.

3.2 Adhere to SEBI Mutual Fund Regulations and guidelines related to selling,

distribution and advertising practices. Be fully conversant with the key

provisions of the offer document as well as the operational requirements of

various schemes.

3.3 Provide full and latest information of schemes to investors in the form of

offer documents, performance reports, fact sheets, portfolio disclosures and

brochures, and recommend schemes appropriate for the client’s situation and

needs.

3.4 Highlight risk factors of each scheme, avoid misrepresentation and

exaggeration, and urge investors to go through offer documents/key

information memorandum before deciding to make investments.

3.5 Disclose all material information related to the schemes/plans while

canvassing for business.

3.6 Abstain from indicating or assuring returns in any type of scheme, unless

the offer document is explicit in this regard.

3.7 Maintain necessary infrastructure to support the AMCs in maintaining

high service standards to investors, and ensure that critical operations such as

forwarding forms and cheques to AMCs/registrars and despatch of statement

of account and redemption cheques to investors are done within the time

frame prescribed in the offer document and SEBI Mutual Fund Regulations.

3.8 Avoid colluding with clients in faulty business practices such as bouncing

cheques, wrong claiming of dividend/redemption cheques, etc.

3.9 Avoid commission driven malpractices such as:

(a) recommending inappropriate products solely because the intermediary is

getting higher commissions therefrom.

Page 66: cif circular

66(b) encouraging over transacting and churning of mutual fund investments

to earn higher commissions, even if they mean higher transaction costs and

tax for investors.

3.10 Avoid making negative statements about any AMC or scheme and

ensure that comparisons if any, are made with similar and comparable

products.

3.11 Ensure that all investor related statutory communications (such as

changes in fundamental attributes, exit/entry load, exit options, and other

material aspects) are sent to investors reliably and on time.

3.12 Maintain confidentiality of all investor deals and transactions.

3.13 When marketing various schemes, remember that a client’s interest and

suitability to their financial needs is paramount, and that extra commission or

incentive earned should never form the basis for recommending a scheme to

the client.

3.14 Intermediaries will not rebate commission back to investors and avoid

attracting clients through temptation of rebate/gifts etc.

3.15 A focus on financial planning and advisory services ensures correct

selling, and also reduces the trend towards investors asking for pass back of

commission.

3.16 All employees engaged in sales and marketing should obtain AMFI

certification. Employees in other functional areas should also be encouraged

to obtain the same certification.

Sequence of steps in the Event of Breach of Above “Code of Conduct” By

the Intermediary

If any breach of the above Code of Conduct for intermediary is reported to

AMFI by either an investor or an AMC in writing, then AMFI will initiate the

following steps:

_ Write to the intermediary (enclosing copies of the complaint and other

documentary evidence) and ask for an explanation within a time limit of 3

weeks _ In case an explanation is not received within the time limit, or the

explanation is not satisfactory, AMFI will issue a warning letter indicating

that any subsequent violation will result in cancellation of AMFI Registration

Page 67: cif circular

67_ If there is a proved second violation by the intermediary, the registration

will be cancelled and an intimation sent to all AMCs.

The intermediary will have a right of appeal to AMFI

5. Tie-up with SBI MF (vide CC letter no. MCS/03-04/17 dated 12.05.2003)

The need for leveraging our retail network and seek alternative avenues of

income streams to augment our fee income and boost profitability has been

engaging our attention for quite some time. Further, there is a distinct trend

towards bank branches offering their customers the entire range of financial

products and services. Against this backdrop, cross selling the products of

our Subsidiaries and Associates would enable us to exploit the synergy that

exists within the SBI Group. With this in view, it has been decided to

commence selling Mutual Fund products (MFs) of SBI Mutual Fund

(SBIMF) through select branches of our Retail Network.

Page 69: cif circular

69 i. Tie-up with UTI MF (vide CC Circular no. PBBU/MCS/06-07/01 dated

01.04.06)

SBI Mutual Funds has successfully leveraged our Branch network to mobilize

substantial subscriptions to its products including NFOs, during the current

financial year and this accomplishment has been noted by other Mutual

Funds in the market. In the hope of similarly increasing their penetration,

UTIMF had approached us with a proposal to market its Mutual Funds

through our branch network. On examination, it was decided that this offer

presents us with an opportunity to diversify our sources for increasing the fee

based income earned by our Branches. In addition, by selling Mutual Fund

products of companies, other than SBI Mutual Funds alone, the bouquet of

products of different brands would be enlarged, thereby increasing the cross

selling income and also helping to retain our customers who would otherwise

have migrated. The offer of UTI MF was duly considered and accepted by the

Bank and an agreement to this effect was entered into with UTI MF for a

period of 3 years w.e.f., 1st April 2006 to 31st March 2009. The arrangement

has since been extended up to 31st March 2012.

2. Offering select products of other mutual funds is also expected to enhance

the marketing ability of the branch because our customer is a discerning

customer, aware of the best products of mutual funds in the market and

unless the best product is offered, the customer may decide to look for the

same elsewhere.

3. It has therefore been decided, as a pilot project, to market select MF

products of UTIMF. Designated branches, (in all 295 branches) across the

country at 48 centres (63 UTI Finance Centres) will be authorized to accept

deposits (barring cash deposits) for select MF products of UTIMF.

Depending upon our experience in this pilot launch, the list of centres and

branches may be added/deleted and will be advised to Circles on an ongoing

Page 70: cif circular

70basis, in due course. Presently, the designated branches are authorized

to market the following UTI MF schemes only:

Equity Schemes

a) UTI Mastershare Unit Scheme

b) UTI Mastervalue Fund

c) UTI Dividend Yield Fund

d) UTI Basic Industries Fund

Balanced Schemes

a) UTI Children Career Plan (Balanced)

b) UTI Retirement Benefit Pension Plan

c) UTI Balanced Fund

4. SBI Mutual funds is a group company and as such we shall continue to give

preferential treatment to the sale of SBI Mutual Fund products .The

preferential treatment will remain in the following manner:

(i) SBI Mutual Fund products will be offered on

sale at all the branches throughout the

country with no restriction. The Bank /

Mutual Fund has set up a network of

Investor Service Centres / co-ordinators, etc.

at all LHOs exclusively for SBI Mutual Fund.

These shall remain dedicated to SBI Mutual

Funds.

(ii) The ACE shall first offer the SBIMF product

to the customer, in the case of competing

products.

(iii) The sale of products offered by UTI Mutual

Funds shall be restricted to branches in some

selected centres only.

Page 71: cif circular

715. Accounting/Collection System : UTI MF product application forms

will be accepted by the designated branches upto 2.00 p.m . These

applications accompanied by local cheques (no cash deposit) will be listed as

797. Tie-up with Tata MF

( vide CC circular No. MCS/07-08/6 dated 2nd June 2007)

We have successfully leveraged our Branch network to mobilize substantial

subscriptions for products of SBI Mutual Funds and UTI Mutual Funds

including NFOs, during the current financial year. Consequent to this

accomplishment, it has been decided to market its mutual funds through our

branch network. On examination, it was decided that this offer presents us

with an opportunity to diversify our sources for increasing the fee based

income earned by our Branches. In addition, by selling Mutual Fund

products of companies other than SBI Mutual Funds alone, the bouquet of

products of different brands would be enlarged, thereby increasing the cross

selling income and also helping to retain our customers who may otherwise

have migrated. The offer of TATA MF was duly considered and accepted by

the Bank and an agreement for a tie-up was entered into with TATA MF for a

period of 3 years w.e.f. 16th May 2007 to 15th May 2010.

2. It has, therefore, been decided, as a pilot project, to market select MF

products only, of TATA MF. Designated branches at centres where TATA

MF has its branches (list enclosed – Annexure I) will be authorized to accept

deposits (barring cash deposits) for select MF products of TATA MF.

104FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ON KYC

What is KYC?

KYC is an acronym for “Know your Client”, a term commonly used for Client Identification Process. SEBI has prescribed certain requirements relating to KYC norms for Financial Institutions and Financial Intermediaries including Mutual Funds to ‘know’ their Clients. This would be in the form of verification of identity and address, providing information of financial status, occupation and such other demographic information. Applicant must be KYC compliant while investing with any SEBI registered Mutual Fund.

What are the KYC requirements for a Mutual Fund Investor?

Individual investors will have to produce his Proof of identity (Photo PAN card copy or PAN card copy and copy of the passport, driving license etc.) and Proof of Address (any valid documents listed in section B of the KYC Application Form for Individuals). Non –Individual Investors will have to produce certain documents pertaining to its constitution/registration to fulfill the KYC process. A list of Mandatory Certified Documents to be submitted can be found in section C of the KYC application form for Non-Individual Investors. .

Where and how does one get to be KYC Compliant? Does the investor have to repeat the KYC process with every Mutual Fund?

The Mutual Fund Industry has appointed CDSL Ventures Limited (“CDSL”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Central Depository Services (India) Limited, to carry out the KYC compliance procedure. CVL through its Points of Service (POS) will accept KYC Application Forms, verify documents and provide the KYC Acknowledgement (across the counter on a best effort basis). The list of PoS will be displayed on the websites of Mutual Funds, CDSL and AMFI. Once the KYC is duly completed in all repects, the investor needs to produce a copy of the acknowledgement to the fund where the investor desires to invest. There is no need to repeat the KYC individually for each mutual fund,

What is a KYC Application Form?

A KYC Application Form has been designed for Individual and Non-Individual Investors separately. The soft copy of these KYC forms will be made available on the website of all mutual funds, AMFI and Central Depository Services (India) Limited (CDSL). You may also approach your distributor for a form. It is important to read the instructions printed on the KYC Application Form while filling-up the form.

Page 105: cif circular

105Should the investor visit PoS personally to obtain KYC Compliance?

No. If the investor is not in a position to visit PoS personally, the KYC Application Form along with the necessary documents (including originals if the copies are not attested) can be sent through the distributor or representative, who can arrange to fulfill the KYC obligation and obtain the KYC Acknowledgement through any of the PoS.

To whom is a KYC applicable? Is there any exemption?

If you do not obtain a KYC Acknowledgement, you will not be able to invest Rs. 50,000 or more in a Mutual Fund.

In case of existing investors when and how will the KYC norms be introduced?

KYC norms are applicable to all investors. It is in the interest of all Investors to obtain KYC Acknowledgement and submit it to the Mutual Fund to avoid any inconvenience in future.

What happens if I have multiple folios/ accounts with a Mutual Fund?

You can inform the Mutual Fund to update the KYC Acknowledgement against all the folios/accounts you have with it. However, each of the holders in these folios/accounts should be KYC Compliant.

Is there a charge I need to pay to get myself KYC Compliant?

Currently, KYC is being done free of cost.

Page 107: cif circular

107

I am an NRI residing outside India. How do I get myself KYC Compliant?

What about Minor becoming Major?

Upon a Minor attaining the age of majority (i.e. on completing 18 years of age), he/she must be KYC Compliant and have KYC Acknowledgement of their own. The same should be informed to the Mutual Fund where he/she holds an investment, along with other details such as the Bank Details, Signature, etc as per the present requirements of such Mutual Fund.

Please note that you should not write to the Mutual Fund or its Registrar for the change of address (unless as a designated PoS). The specified form can be obtained from the AMFI/Mutual Fund website. All details of the holders in the Mutual Fund records will be replaced by the address details available in the CVL record.

Page 108: cif circular

108If I am already providing my PAN/PAN Proof for my investment in Mutual Fund. Is that not sufficient for meeting the requirement of KYC?

The requirement of providing your PAN along with proof is sufficient for proof of identity. However, the current requirement for KYC requires the Mutual Fund to verify identity, address as well as obtain further information about the investor.

Why do I need to give my Income details? How can I be sure that it will not be misused?

As per PMLA, it is mandatory for Mutual Funds to obtain financial status details from its investors. It is for this reason that the Income details are sought. Please note that no proof / income documents are required. The information given you in the KYC Application form will be treated in a confidential manner and used for regulatory purposes if called for.

Do I need to inform about my change of Income status?

Yes. I you find an increased/decrease in your income, which would effectively, changed the income bracket that you have declared in the KYC Application form, you should apply to any convenient PoS in the specified form. No proof is needed.

Can an investor give a COA (Change of Address) along with redemption request?

The redemption transaction accompanied by a KYC Acknowledgement form is likely to be processed without effecting the change of address request.

Is the KYC Acknowledgement a separate form or is it a part of the Mutual Fund application. Which of the forms require being time-stamped?

KYC Acknowledgement will be done on the photocopy of the form. Time stamping is not required on the KYC Acknowledgement.

What do I do once I have received my KYC Acknowledgement?

Once the investor is KYC compliant, it will be required to intimate his KYC details to all the Mutual Funds with whom it has investments. The same will be updated in the records of the Mutual Fund.

For signature difference in investor request, Mutual Funds generally ask for a banker attestation. Since a signature is not available with identity proof, will you still insist on banker attestation for signature difference?

Signature verification is done by Mutual Funds to protect an investor from losses. As such, Mutual Funds may follow extra due-diligence if signatures

109are not matching, such as getting Bank attestation for such transactions. This could be independent of the KYC procedure.

What if I have already completed the earlier KYC (MIN) procedure with CVL?

Scenario 1

You need not repeat the process now.

Scenario 2

Bancassurance- General Insurance Tie up with New India (CC Letter no. MCS/03-04/91 dated 24.10.2003 and MCS/03-04/247 dated 12.03.04) The Bank has entered into a tie-up with New India Assurance Co. for distribution of the general insurance products through our Branch network. An MOU to this effect has been signed on 20th October 2003.. 2. As in the case of life insurance products, the general insurance products can be sold only through a trained and qualified employees of the Bank. ……………. The 50 hrs training is for Officers / Assistants who are CAIIB and the100 hrs training for Officers/Assistants who are non-CAIIB. Faculty support conducted at STC Hyderabad/Bangalore/Perambur which has been accredited by IRDA for conduct of general insurance training. Immediately after the training, the selected Officers/Assistants will be required to appear for a Test conducted by IRDA. Arrangements for administering the Test to the trained staff will be made by New India Assurance Co. 3.Once the selected Officials/Assistants from the identified branches complete the training and are successful in the prescribed general insurance test, they will be designated as ‘Specified Persons’(SP) authorised to sell insurance products of New India Assurance Co viz. Fire, Marine(Cargo) and Motor covers to begin with.

4. New India has allotted the Bank the corporate agency code no. 900042 and when our SP sells select products under the allotted agency code, commission from New India will accrue to the particular branch from where the insurance business has been booked at the following rates: a) For Corporate Clients:

> Rs 25 Crs NIL 15%

Page 166: cif circular

166b) For Individual Clients: 15%

5. To facilitate our trained and qualified officials/assistants viz ‘Specified Persons’ to commence marketing general insurance products we furnish below a few guidelines:-- i) While the choice of the general insurer from whom the customer may wish to purchase insurance cover rests with the borrower, our branches concerned should liaise with officials of New India in their respective areas of operations and endeavour to book the business by encouraging the customers to purchase the cover from us. ii) In cases where insurance cover has already been obtained by the customers, their renewal dates will need to be diarised so that at the time of renewal they can be availed from us. For this the SP will need to contact the concerned customer well before the due date for marketing the products of New India. iii)Neighbouring branches which do not have a SP may also utilize the services of the SP from the identified branch. Suitable instructions should be issued to all the branches to direct all such business leads to the SP from the identified branch. iv) The SP should interact with the visiting borrowers at the branch premises to explore the scope of selling the products to the customers. Branch/Divisional Managers are required to guide the SP suitably in this regard. v)SPs should be actively involved in Customer Relations Programmes and other such events held or arranged by the Bank to spread awareness amongst our customers of the Bank’s foray in general insurance through the corporate agency route. vi) Commission at the rates agreed to with New India, vide para 3 above will accrue to the Branch.SPs will check the commission amount as calculated by New India branch from where the business has been booked. For this purpose, a suitable backup register needs to be maintained which will be scrutinised by the Branch Manager/Divisional Manager

vii) SPs will need to actively liaise with local New India officials who will also offer the necessary support to our branches.

MOU to act as Corporate Agent of New India Assurance Co. Renewal thereof (CC Circular No. PBBU/MCS/06-07/12 dated 01.11.2006)

The Bank entered into an MOU with New India Assurance Co. on October

20, 2003 for a period of 3 years to act as its Corporate Agent for distribution of

select general insurance products through our Branches. The MOU has now

been renewed w.e.f., 20th Oct 2006 for a period of 3 years i.e. till 19th Oct

2009, on the same terms, and conditions, as the earlier MOU.

2. The tieup offers our Branches/Offices another income stream to augment

our “Other Income” in as much as all assets insured with New India

Assurance Co. under the Bank’s Corporate Agency Code No. 900042 will

generate a commission ranging from 5 % to 15 % of premium paid. In this

context, we enclose, at Annexure-A, IRDA Circular no.

IRD/CIR/BRO/074/Feb 05 dated 22.02.2005 containing the rates of

commission payable to our offices/branches.

3. All branches/offices are advised to maintain close liaison with the local

offices of New India Assurance Co. and endeavour to cover ALL our Assets

with New India Assurance Co.

4. Currently the strength of Specified Persons is very low and not

commensurate with our assets portfolio. Efforts should now be made to

increase the number of Specified Persons by multitasking the present

qualified and trained Certified Insurance facilitators and AMFI Certified

Employees. Adoption of cluster approach by Specified Persons to book

general insurance business of neighbouring branches not having Specified

Person(s) will also enhance the coverage of general insurance under the tie up

arrangement.

176 4. Scheme for Reimbursement of Examination fees and Payment of Honorarium : General Insurance

(Vide e-Circular P&HRD. Sl. No. : 266/2007 - 08 Circular No. : CDO/P&HRD-LANDD/22/2007 – 08 dated 11 August 2007)

1. In terms of extant instructions, vide our Cir./ HRD/ CDO/ 94/ 878 dated

24.11.2003, approval had been granted for payment of an incentive of

Rs.2500/- (Rupees two thousand five hundred only) to such employees who

successfully complete the training in the subject of non-life insurance and

qualify a mandatory test to be conducted by the institutions accredited by

IRDA for the purpose.

2. In this connection, during the last few years the general insurance market

has been growing at a substantial pace. A number of players have entered the

market and the existing as well as the new players have adopted aggressive

strategies to capture a larger share of the market. The Bank, too, is in the

process of entering the general insurance market and this is likely in the next

six months. The Bank needs to be well prepared by way of adequate number

of trained employees who are ready to seek significant business for the Bank

by the time the new general insurance business is launched. To capture a

sizable market-share of the growing business, the Bank needs

to significantly focus on marketing efforts and involve more and more

employees at the Branch level. This calls for further motivating our employees

for going in for certification in a big way. The existing Scheme for Payment of

Honorarium is now more than four years old and, in the meantime, there has

been an all round increase in prices.

3. In view of the above, it has been decided to increase the honorarium

payable on obtaining certification for non-life insurance from Rs.2500/- to

Rs.5000/- (Rupees five thousand only). It has also been decided that in view

of the large-scale appointment of CRE (PB)s, the Scheme may be extended to

cover such employees also.

4. All other terms and conditions as mentioned in our aforementioned

Circular would remain unchanged.

195 5. Sharing of Customer Information (vide CC letter nos. BBU/MCS/Card/21/77 dated 21.07.2005 and PBBU/MCS/06-07/232 dated 12.03.2007) a) A number of branches are being approached of late by sales agents purporting to be Sales Executives of our subsidiaries. They have reportedly requested our branches to furnish details of Names, Addresses, telephone numbers, three months statements of accounts etc. and various other details of information regarding our customers. Branches are persuaded that the information is sought only for selling/cross selling Banks products and has the concurrence of the Controlling Office. b) It is reiterated that as per the extant instructions of Reserve Bank of India, it will not be proper to share customer data without the specific written consent of the customer. This applies even to our own subsidiaries. Branches should provide information in respect of the account including copy of the statements only on receipt of specific authority signed by the customer to furnish the information. Such written authority should be retained in the Branch and filed with the Account Opening form. c) This will not prevent the Branch staff from offering the products of our subsidiaries to our customers over the counter or through mailers, campaigns, melas and any other sales effort organized by the Bank. This also does not apply to CIFs, ACEs, SPs, RMPBs, OBSF etc, who have booked business for the Bank, obtained the customer’s signature and assent in the application form and then forwarded the customer’s data to a Subsidiary. d) Passing on addresses of customers to agents who are not fully aware of the sensitivity of the relationship with the branch and do not understand the customer needs fully, does not benefit the Branch. Our endeavour should be to Cross sell the products to our customers ourselves, thereby enhancing the value of our existing relationship and earns the Branch income by way of commission, brokerage etc.
