Beneficial Owner
Consider a chain of legal entities, held by other legal entities, held by other legal entities, and so on ad eternam,
until the real beneficiaries are obfuscated. In the wake of the Panama papers
incident, and other related leaks, the government mandated the requirement for companies to list their beneficial owners.
Beneficial owners are the people who, at the end of that pipeline, get benefits from, owns, or otherwise holds control
of the company, and this must be known in order to combat corruption, money laundering and terrorism financing.
Do note that as the regulations that mandate this are recent, many registered companies have yet to submit any declaration.
The Beneficial Owner's history is regardless of the month history current setting.
