Ultimate Beneficial Owners are the natural persons who ultimately own or control a company through direct or indirect ownership. According to German law (GwG - Geldwäschegesetz), individuals holding more than 25% of shares or voting rights are typically considered beneficial owners. Our API automatically calculates these percentages by analyzing multi-level ownership structures.
AML/KYC Compliance: Financial institutions, lawyers, and notaries use UBO data to fulfill anti-money laundering and know-your-customer requirements. Identify who ultimately controls a business relationship.Enhanced Due Diligence: For high-risk transactions, identify the natural persons who ultimately benefit from and control the company, even when ownership is structured through complex corporate arrangements.Regulatory Reporting: Many industries require disclosure of beneficial ownership. Use this endpoint to automatically identify reportable UBOs for regulatory filings and transparency registers.
