Is the Communication Generator free to use?

No. The fact that a company requests information from a shareholder or member does not automatically mean that this person is a beneficial owner. Indirect structures, acting in concert and other means of control may also be relevant.

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.

Yes. It takes into account, among other things, legal entities as holders of ownership interests, multi-level ownership and chains of control, acting in concert, specific control rights, financing instruments, fiduciary arrangements and trusts.
