Currently we are providing banking services to corporate customers in Latvia. However, Handelsbanken is set to gradually discontinue the operations in the Baltics. We will be able to offer current banking services like accounts, cash management, working capital, etc., through other units within the Bank.
In the short term, general advice and assistance will continue to be provided by our Riga branch.

Since 1 July 2014, all the world's financial institutions must ask their clients about their US tax residency, for instance: those who are US citizens, US tax residents, persons with a residence permit, etc. The same must be asked of the beneficial owners of legal entities.
The above is stated in the US legal act FATCA, the objective of which is to collect data for the US on its tax residents' incomes that are transferred to financial institutions' (including Latvian financial institutions) accounts. Therefore, the Latvian branch of Svenska Handelsbanken AB collects clients' data required by the Tax Information Exchange Act and discloses the data of persons who have not provided the Bank with the necessary information to the Tax and Customs Board.
