The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) represents a significant step in U.S. efforts to combat financial crimes and enhance corporate accountability. Here are four important bullet points related to the CTA:
The CTA aims to prevent and combat money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit financial activities. It does this by improving transparency of business ownership, requiring certain U.S. companies to report their beneficial ownership information to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
Small businesses and entities created or registered to do business in the U.S. must file beneficial ownership information with FinCEN.
Certain entities are exempt from these reporting requirements, including publicly traded companies, governmental entities, banks, credit unions, and other entities already subject to specific regulatory oversight and reporting requirements.
Failure to comply with the CTA's reporting requirements can result in significant civil and criminal penalties.
