Die EU-Richtlinie 2022/23811 Women on Boards" (die Richtlinie") ist mittlerweile offiziell in Kraft getreten, da die Mitgliedstaaten bis zum 28. Dezember 2024 Zeit hatten, um sie in nationales Recht umzusetzen.

Juni 2026 erfüllen. Nutzen wir die Gelegenheit und beleuchten nochmals die verschiedenen Verpflichtungen, die sich aus dieser Richtlinie ergeben.

Luxembourg Business Registers Clarifies RBE Filings For Companies Held By A Trust Or Foundation

Luxembourg's Business Register has clarified how beneficial ownership rules apply when companies are held through trusts or foundations, requiring entities to register the underlying trust or foundation's beneficial owners rather than applying the standard corporate ownership test. This interpretation, issued without a transitional period, means affected entities must immediately review their beneficial ownership filings to ensure compliance with the Register's position.
