[dk]Documentation
The Beneficial Ownership API helps identify and verify the individuals who ultimately control or benefit from a company, even if not officially listed as shareholders or board members. These are the real decision-makers, often holding influence through direct ownership or indirect means such as agreements or proxies. Gaining insight into beneficial owners strengthens your risk assessments and ensures compliance with global AML and KYC regulations.
