The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act (ECCTA), which became law on 26 October 2023 is the second part of a legislative package to prevent the abuse of UK corporate structures and tackle economic crime. The ECCTA contains wide-ranging provisions to... 🎯 prevent organised criminals, fraudsters, kleptocrats and terrorists from using companies/corporate entities to abuse the UK’s open economy; 🎯 strengthen the UK’s response to economic crime – in part through improved transparency and in part by giving law enforcement new powers; and 🎯 improve the reliability of data held at Companies House to inform business transactions and lending decisions across the economy. ZEDRA's London based Corporate Secretary Carolyn Arlett outlines some of the key changes which will be enacted over the next two years in her latest article: https://lnkd.in/eR2nxksy #UKCompanyLaw #CorporateSecretarial #UKLegislation
