What is Beneficial Ownership?

Recently, Many business owners/directors received letters/email from their Company Secretary.


What is BO?

Wikipedia:

Beneficial ownership is a term in domestic and international commercial law which refers to the natural person or persons "who ultimately own or control a legal entity or arrangement, such as a company, a trust, or a foundation".[1] The legal owner (i.e. the owner on the record) may be described as the "registered owner", and if they are not the beneficial owner they may be described as a "nominee".


Why the trouble to declare BO?

It is required by the law to prevent abuse of financial arrangement via legal ownership to hide the real (beneficial) owner.


Should we sign the letter to declare BO?

Yes.

Compliance in Malaysia will only get 'more' and 'more' in future. Just be prepared for it.

人脉

很多人都听过或明白,人脉就是钱脉。美国著名的人际关系学鼻祖戴尔·卡耐基曾说:“一个人的成功,专业知识占15%,85%取决于人际关系”。 然而,很多人都误会了人脉真正的意思。人脉不是你认识的人有多少个,而是有多少人认识你,而且还认可你。当彼此有合作共赢的机会和有等价交换的利用价值时,这才是真正的人脉! 原文 https://www.enanyang.my/%E5%90%8D%E5%AE%B6%E4%
