| 9/14/2006 | Bank of Lithuania | We agree with the AEG recomendations. |
| 8/18/2006 | Italy | We are in favour of the recommendations, but it would be better to clarify and check their consistency with respect to ownership in the context of leases, originals and subsoil assets. |
| 7/28/2006 | Lithuania | In general we support the recommendations. |
| 12/19/2005 | Kenya | Agreed |
| 11/30/2005 | Slovak Republic | SO SR agree with AEG recommendations. |
| 11/29/2005 | Tadjikistan | Мы считаем возможным добавление к названию термина слова "экономический", что требует, однако, более четкого определения этого термина (например, разъяснения его взаимосвязи с термином "интеллектуальная собственность" и т.п.). |
| 6/30/2005 | Slovak Republic | We fully agree with change in terminology of “change of ownership” to “change of economic ownership” as well as with the necessity of clarifying the meaning of the term ”economic ownership” in detail. |
| 6/30/2005 | Serbia and Montenegro | We agree with the recommendations made at the December 2004 meeting of the AEG. |

| 5/19/2005 | Swiss National Bank | We support the proposal to clarify the principle of change of ownership by adding 'economic'. It will also be necessary to define the meaning of 'economic' to decide on such cases as repo operations and security lending/borrowing transactions. |

The background paper from the IMF states that a change in ownership from an economic point of view means that all risk, rewards, and rights and responsibilities of ownership in practice are transferred. Economic ownership does not always mean legal ownership although legal ownership would also mean economic ownership. Hence we wish to agree with the AEG recommendation. |

Toutefois, nous voudrions nous interroger sur les différents contours du concept de “propriété economique”. |

| 4/11/2005 | Philippines | The use of the terminology “change in economic ownership” is recommended since it will clarify some areas regarding changes in ownership. It must be clear that change in legal ownership is synonymous to change in economic ownership. There are cases wherein there is no legal change in ownership but another entity is utilizing the asset and gaining from it. The scope of the term “economic” should be clear.
|
