We have received inquiries from some banks and investment companies on the implementation of items 3 and 4 of the mentioned circular. The inquiries relate to the manner of ascertaining that the non-resident customers who were granted credit facilities by external subsidiaries, do not have dealings with the units of the Kuwaiti banking and financial system, including their internal and foreign branches, so as to determine whether the situation requires the reporting to the Central Bank of Kuwait of the credit facilities accorded to those customers by the foreign subsidiaries of banks and investment companies. While the Central Bank of Kuwait stresses the requirement that your bank / company should take the necessary actions to insure that non-resident customers who were granted credit facilities by external subsidiaries, do not have dealings with the units of the Kuwaiti banking and financial system, including their internal and foreign branches, we would like to advise you that the Central Bank of Kuwait does not have any objection for the checking procedures to include the step of obtaining a declaration from the customer, confirming that he hasn’t got credit facilities from any of those units, or stating the size of those debts, if any. Accordingly, if the above mentioned checking procedures reveal that the customer has obtained credit facilities from any of the local banks or investment companies, including their internal and foreign branches, for an amount exceeding KD 15,000 or the equivalent of this amount in foreign currencies, then in this case you should advice the Central Bank of Kuwait of the data of those customers and their debts, in accordance with the center of risks system and the regulations issued in regard of its implementation.
