Owner Structure

Owner structure data reveals the shareholders of a business, including individuals and companies, along with their ownership percentages and share quantities. This transparency helps organisations evaluate control dynamics, uncover indirect ownership paths, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

By using Roaring’s Owner Structure API, you can retrieve up-to-date ownership information and monitor it over time with real-time change notifications. This supports comprehensive risk assessments, especially when combined with beneficial owner and alternative beneficial owner data for a full ownership picture.

The underlying data includes companies with a turnover of more than SEK 10 million.
