Deloitte Legal provides comprehensive advice on all aspects of compliance with anti-money laundering obligations regarding the notification of beneficial owners to the transparency register, both for German and foreign companies.
This applies not only to the making of (initial, follow-up and correction) UBO notifications and the preparation of the required AML compliance documentation, but also in particular to the support of the management or compliance officers in the context of official notification of inconsistency respectively administrative offense proceedings (sec. 23a AML-Act; sec. 56, 57 AML-Act); in addition to regular cross-border cases, our legal advice in this context also includes the processing of complex, multi-level trust and/or foundation structures.
Furthermore, our Deloitte Legal experts are offering the necessary preparatory advice on all transparency register related aspects of the EU Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Package. The anti-money laundering and transparency requirements contained therein, which will be unified across all EU Member States from July 10, 2027, require the complete re-identification of beneficial owners and lead to an expansion of information on the beneficial owners to be notified, as well as additional documentation, declaration and evidence obligations.
