European court rules disclosure of beneficial owners’ identities is a ‘serious interference’ in privacy rights

Since 2019, Irish law has required beneficial owners of companies and industrial and provident societies to register in line with the EU directive. The Companies Registration Office maintains the beneficial ownership register.

The court held that the directive was neither limited to what was strictly necessary nor proportionate to its aims of preventing money laundering and terrorist financing.

John Devitt, chief executive of Transparency International Ireland, branded the ruling “the biggest setback” in 30 years for the fight against corruption, organised crime and tax evasion.
