Abstract

In order to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing, the European Union has issued the so-called Anti-Money Laundering Directive, on the basis of which a transparency register has been set up in every EU member state. This register is identifying the beneficial owners of legal entities. This article is looking into the costs and bureaucratic burdens associated with registration for company requirements in France, Italy, Austria and Germany and the reasons for the sometimes considerable differences.
