Support Good Morning Gwinnett $5.99 A MonthThe Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) requires most businesses in the U.S. to report their beneficial ownership information to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) to combat money laundering and terrorist financing. These reports provide crucial information about the individuals who ultimately control a business, helping to uncover and disrupt financial crime. The reporting requirements are enforced by FinCEN and failure to comply can lead to serious penalties. The Secretary of State's office, which handles business registration, encourages businesses to familiarize themselves with the new law and its reporting procedures. They emphasize that they do not collect this information and advise businesses to contact FinCEN directly for any questions or assistance.
