Description
Learn more about the Corporate Transparency Act and its implementing regulations and the new requirements.
On January 1, 2024, the first final rule implementing the Corporate Transparency Act (the CTA) went into effect, which will require certain corporations, limited liability companies, and other similar entities formed or registered to do business in the U.S. to report certain information relating to their beneficial owners, senior officers and controlling persons to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). Although the CTA exempts 23 entity types from this requirement, the CTA is expected to have a significant impact on small businesses. FinCEN estimates that approximately 32 million entities will need to file a beneficial ownership information report before the end of 2024, many of them small businesses that may not be aware of this new reporting obligation.
This presentation will provide an overview of the CTA and its implementing regulations and the new requirements imposed by these laws, such as which entities will need to file a report with FinCEN, what information needs to be disclosed on a report, when initial reports will be due, and best practices for ensuring compliance in 2024.
