How can companies already prepare today for the reporting obligations under the Transparency Act?
Antwort
Companies can prepare effectively by clarifying and documenting their ownership structure at an early stage. This includes identifying the beneficial owners and systematically recording the relevant information. Early preparation reduces time pressure, minimises errors and significantly facilitates later reporting to the transparency register.

Does every shareholder or member qualify as a beneficial owner?

Does the Communication Generator identify the beneficial owners?
No. The generator supports communication and information gathering. The actual assessment of who qualifies as a beneficial owner and who must be reported to the transparency register takes place afterwards. Konsento’s Transparency Register Reporting Assistant can be used for this assessment.
