Customer due diligence, usually called KYC (Know Your Customer), means finding out and verifying who a customer or owner actually is. The requirements come from anti-money-laundering and counter-terrorism-financing legislation.
For banks, advisers and investors it is important to see through ownership structures and identify the beneficial owner of a limited company. A correct, traceable share ledger and an up-to-date shareholder register make KYC work easier, especially in capital raising and due diligence.
A beneficial owner is the natural person who ultimately owns or controls a company.
