Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) Resource Center
Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) Resource Center
The Corporate Transparency Act became effective on January 1, 2024. As a result, for the first time, certain businesses will now be required to report information about their ultimate beneficial owners to the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
To keep our clients updated on this evolving regulatory regime, including the newly effective beneficial ownership reporting requirements, and additional information, Morrison and Foerster has created this Corporate Transparency Act Resource Center featuring client alerts, links to FinCEN resources, and additional CTA-related content. Morrison and Foerster has assembled a team of lawyers who stand ready to assist clients with questions regarding their obligations to report beneficial ownership information.
