オフショア信託とレイヤリングにおけるKYC/AML

It's always a challenge with the BVI/Cayman structures. We usually end up requesting certified copies of the trust deed and all underlying entity formation documents, along with proof of beneficial ownership right up to the natural persons. Even then, it's a judgment call.

For trusts, you're looking for the settlor, trustees, and beneficiaries. The private entities are trickier; you need to map out the UBOs of those companies, which often means chasing shareholder registers and other filings back to an ultimate human.

It's always a challenge with those structures. Have you found much success leveraging beneficial ownership registries where they exist, or are you mostly relying on professional intermediaries to provide certified documentation?
