Hsbc Tax Data

France will soon hand over to Austria tax data linked to leaked client data of lender HSBC Holdings Plc which has admitted failings in compliance at its Swiss private bank, France's finance minister said on Thursday.

The Income Tax department has begun digging for more banking and fund records data of those persons who feature on the classified HSBC bank Geneva list, sent to India by the French government.

The Income Tax department, probing the secret list of account holders in the Geneva branch of HSBC bank, has approached Swiss revenue authorities for banking data of certain individuals after investigations showed some of them reportedly had other accounts under fictitious names.

HSBC, Europe's biggest bank, is at the centre of an investigation by British tax authorities into leaked data that a newspaper said showed it provided accounts in the tax haven of Jersey for alleged criminals.
