• The concepts of beneficial owners, the criteria used to identify them and also the importance of this issue for ensuring transparency in the financial and non-financial sectors;
• Technical aspects of the requirements for beneficial owners, differences between legal entities and trusts;
• Practical ways of realization the principles of the beneficial owner through the expert review of the OECD Global Forum;
