Question 33

Last updated 5 November 2018

This question ascertains if you have changed your entity status from general to financial during the income year.

The thin capitalisation provisions categorise non-ADI entities as either:

  • a kind of financial entity (covered by code 2, 4, 6 or 10) or
  • a kind of general entity (covered by code 1, 3, 5 or 9).

See the above table of thin capitalisation entity types.

If you have changed your entity type for thin capitalisation from general to financial during the income year, answer Yes at A item 33.

For more information about the different types of thin capitalisation entities, see the provisions in the Non-authorised deposit-taking institution (Non-ADI) table.
