Accepted BODS formats:Increasingly governments across the globe require companies to disclose information about who ultimately owns and controls them (their beneficial owners). These efforts to increase corporate transparency and counter corruption require information to be shared across institutions, sectors and borders.
The Beneficial Ownership Data Standard (BODS) enables people and institutions to publish information about beneficial ownership in a standardised way. The resulting beneficial ownership data is interoperable, more easily reused, and higher quality. Learn more at the BODS documentation website.
