Summary/Abstract: The new legislation on the prevention of the use of the financial system for the purposes of money laundering or terrorist financinghas introduced the obligation on companies to declare the beneficial owner at the trade register office, for the purpose of registration in the Register of Beneficial Owners. The criteria on the basis of which the beneficial owner is determined, the consequences of non fulfillment of the obligation to declare the beneficial owner and the lack of an adequate mechanism by which to identify the companies exempted from fulfilling this obligation can raise serious problems, as we will show in this paper.
