New Rules Regarding Beneficial Ownership and How It Affects Your Business

Effective January 1, 2024, many companies in the United States must report information about their beneficial owners to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). FinCEN is a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

UCB is committed to providing you with the information you need to comply with these government regulations. To learn more about Beneficial Ownership, click here.
