Navigating Beneficial Ownership Law in Trinidad and Tobago

Are you aware of the Companies (Amendment) Act (CAA), which became law in 2019? Simply, it is a legal obligation for companies to disclose their beneficial owners using newly published and prescribed forms.

Once successfully implemented, and with high compliance rates by companies, this legal obligation would give Trinidadian law enforcement agencies and other government bodies access to detailed information on who really owns companies and who ultimately benefits from transactions. Public disclosure of this information benefits a range of other stakeholders, including companies themselves.

Understandably, the COVID-19 pandemic has delayed implementation for several years. However, the time has come to take action and uphold country-wide standards for beneficial ownership. Do you know your way around beneficial ownership legislation?
