Singapore: Are intra-group transactions exempted from reporting?
There is no exemption for intra-group transactions. Derivatives contracts entered into between different legal entities within the same group are to be reported. This is regardless of whether the intra-group transaction is entered into as a hedge, including hedging against derivatives contracts that are not reportable. For example, a CMSL enters into a derivatives contract with a person who is not an accredited or institutional investor (this contract is exempt from reporting requirement), and at the same time, the CMSL enters into a separate derivatives contract with its related entity for hedging purpose (this contract is required to be reported).
