By Rachel Zoch| PPAI@ On March 21, , the U.S. Treasury Department's financial crimes unit issued an interim final rule that effectively ends the requirement for U.S.-based businesses to report beneficial ownership information. Beneficial ownership information refers to the individual people who directly or indirectly own at least 25% of a company or exercise "substantial control" over the company. The vast majority of PPAI's roughly 15,000 member companies would have been subject to the reporting requirement.
