Austria: Why is the WiEReG important?

WiEReG – The Register of Beneficial Owners

The WiEReG is a central Austrian regulation that requires legal entities to register their beneficial owners. This register was introduced to ensure transparency and to make sure that individuals who directly or indirectly hold more than 25% of a company’s capital can be easily identified. It supports EU directives on combating money laundering and promotes integrity and transparency in business activities.
