(Article) Confidentiality
26.06.2023
David Whittaker of Mishcon de Reya focuses on the importance of confidentiality for ultra-high-net-worth individuals. He notes that information confidentiality has been subject to fundamental legislative changes over the last 10 or so years. These changes have brought into question our traditional ideas about information privacy, including the differences between state and public disclosure. He covers the Common Reporting Standard but also the United Kingdom's Trust Registration Service, Register of Overseas Entities and Persons with Significant Control Register.
