Beginning January 1, 2024, certain privately held companies, known as “reporting companies,” will be required to file a Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) Report to identify, and provide personal information about, their direct and indirect owners to the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) under the reporting rules of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) and the underlying regulations. The CTA reporting rules are intended to help FinCEN combat financial crimes, including money laundering, tax evasion, terrorist financing, and other corrupt financing activities.
