(ii) In Section 2. Instructions to Bidders, A. General Provisions, 3. Eligibility in paragraph 3.2 in the RFP template (for services $200K and above) and in the ITB templates. For AML/CFT purposes (FATF Recommendation 24), the definition of ultimate beneficial owners focuses on the natural persons behind corporate entities. Ultimate beneficial owner means a natural person that exercises control over an entity through direct or indirect ownership, or has other means of influencing the Bidder such as through financing, close family relationships with the owners of the Bidder or through holding key positions within the Bidder. The updated templates are linked in paragraph 4 of the Solicitation policy. EXPAND

After this date, the use of ICs will be restricted to lump-sum deliverable-based arrangements only. However, the IC policy is still available in its current form, covering both daily and lump-sum based ICs; for use by all other UN Agencies until 31 December 2022. |
