New feature: Reason to be a beneficial owner

The list of beneficial owners in the PDF report now includes a reason column. The reason is a description of why the system has classified the entity as a beneficial owner.

There are six possible reasons:

ReasonDescription
Direct ownershipThe person has direct ownership of a certain percentage above 25%
Indirect control or ownership

The person has control of the company through indirect ownership or control through multiple steps. For each step control of at least 25% is required.

Note that ownership of some specific share class may lead to greater control than the actual ownership percentage, and this aspect is taken into account in the calculation.

Direct role in the foundationThe organization of interest is a foundation. Major roles in such foundations are classified as beneficial owners.
Indirect control through role in some foundationThe person has a major role in some foundation which in the next step has great ownership (25% each step) of the organization of interest.
Voting rightsThe person has direct ownership of some specific share class giving voting rights greater than 25%.
Both voting rights and direct ownershipThe person has direct ownership of some specific share class giving voting rights greater than 25%. The direct ownership percentage in itself is also large enough to classify the person as a beneficial owner.

This information will soon also be available in the JSON response.

Note that this feature is in a beta stage, and is currently only available to some customers.

5Links to information about PEP/Sanction results in the PDF reports are no longer clickable. A restriction in the PDF/A standard (PDF for archiving purposes) caused the hyperlinks to be corrupt in some cases. Instead, the links are now presented as pure text.
