Beneficial Ownership

Beneficial ownership transparency involves collecting and disclosing information about the real human beings who own and control companies and other corporate vehicles.

Beyond corruption, knowing who ultimately owns or benefits from a company can also help to identify responsibility for other violations of law, such as environment or labor rules.
