    industry practices. On the other hand, in the case of other advanced compared with the efforts, It seems that grasping is left as an issue,Ten The banking industry is also demanding that these measures be taken. This system deals with the above issues by the commercial registry office. Among the three methods described in the first 3 above, the method of using the registration agency as the information source. Corresponding to the law (the Registry Approach)As an approach to improve the accuracy and precision of gripping, other methods in Japan in combination with the efforts by Is possible.

Therefore, The banking industry is also using “a credible testimony” when identifying the actual ruler of a customer.So that a copy of the Substantive Ruler List can be used as a "trace" Is expected to increase the reliability of confirmation of the actual ruler. Has been.

  37. Will improve reliability and reduce the burden on financial institutions

    and customers.Reduce the cost of society as a whole, and the transactions can be carried out more quickly.The expected effect is expected.C Summary This system is based on the premise that corporations can use it voluntarily. It does not impose obligations on related parties like the system of allies, but will be described later. As shown in the figure, it is appropriate in the overall system for grasping the actual ruler in Japan. By placing it in the 11It is expected that the introduction of this system will be of great significance. It(2) Target of this systemA. Types of legal entities subject to the system and types of effective rulership system is a new initiative by the commercial registry office, the registry office may conduct a written examination of a type that is familiar to its work.
  38. In light of what has been considered to be the

    institution responsible for the work that can be done, first of all, Of the stock companies and special limited companies that are majority voting companies, Consider that the ruler is a substantive ruler type ① and a substantive ruler type ②. Like an elephant, and also when the shareholders are foreign companies process of starting is considered appropriate. On the other hand, corporations other than capital majority corporations such as joint-venture companies, corporations and special cases Substantial ruler of the limited company is a substantive ruler type ③ or substantive ruler Substantial ruler for type ④ and foreign share holders It is also the case that the centralized and continuous grasp of the issue is an issue.
  39. Therefore, regarding the types of corporations and substantive rulers who

    are not covered by this system, However, as a future issue, considering the operational status after the introduction of this system,It is considerable to examine the way of life. At that time, the work of the registry office is generally a type of book familiar to the work.Since it is supposed to be carried out by face-to-face examination, For confirmation of the effective ruler of the outside corporation, see the balance sheet or income statement. It is necessary to check the materials that clarify the status of dividend distribution and property distribution.
  40. Necessary, and in the first stage of the examination, investment,

    financing, transactions and other relationshipsWhether there is a natural person who has a dominant influence on the business activities of the corporation throughTherefore, a more substantive examination is required. However, in consideration of the fact that a written examination is possible, Whether it is suitable for work, and if it is not, what kind of organizationIt is necessary to consider including whether it should be carried.B. Types of transactions covered by this system this system are for high-risk transactions under Article 4, Paragraph 2 of the Act on Prevention of Transfer of Criminal Proceeds, usually can be used for any type of specific transaction ofIt(3) Business flow for issuing a copy of the effective ruler list regarding the business flow for issuing a copy of the Substantive Ruler List, see 2(2)(2)As described above, the registrar must correct the accuracy of the document prepared by the applicant corporation.

The debate should be done. If the applying corporation makes an application using false materials, etc.
  43. Depending on the case, sanctions may be imposed in accordance

    with relevant laws and regulations. For example, the requesting corporation Is false in the shareholder registry, the Companies Act (Law No. 86 of 2005)According to the provisions of Article 976 No.7, fines of 1 million yen or less will be imposed.

  45. In addition to the ability of the bank to identify

    the effective control of the customer, As a material for confirming the accuracy of the declaration content of the is expected to be used in the form of requesting a copy of the list. However, in order to carry out such operations, the customer of the bank must manage the system.It is important to deepen the solution. Regarding this point, first of all, as described in the above 3(1)Regarding the corporations used, it is registered that the list of effective rulers is stored. It is added to the book, and it is assumed that it will be stated in the entry certificate.Therefore, the applying corporation, when conducting transactions with parties other than financial institutions, By hand, a copy of the Substantive Ruler List will be submitted if requested.
  46. Recognized as a highly transparent company. Therefore, its reliability is

    improved The corporation can enjoy the de facto advantage of doing so. By doing so, it is believed that understanding of the significance of this system will be spread to some extent. Furthermore, in order to promote the understanding of bank customers, this system will be adopted in Japan. Be properly positioned within the overall system for grasping the actual ruler information. And are important. Therefore, in the future, including the FSA Mannion Guidelines, In order for this system to be properly positioned in the overall national structure, It is necessary to further study in cooperation with the Financial Services Agency.
  47. Also, in order to spread the understanding of the significance

    of this system, related organizations will work together. It is considered necessary to publicize the information. To inform, public institutions It is said that fake emails posing as users will cause damage to users. Care should also be taken to prevent the occurrence of a situation. (7) When it is assumed that a copy of the effective ruler list will be used As of the end of December 2019, the number of joint-stock companies and special limited companies was approximately 3,455,000. As a company, this system is mainly based on the fact that these corporations deal with specified businesses. It is expected to be used when doing.

  48. Depending on the operation of the specific business, the transaction

    with the customer begins At times, and during ongoing customer management, objective and unified judgments by public institutions are made.It is considered that it will be required in cases such as where disconnection is required. 14(8) Access to information on effective rulers managed by the commercial registry office Substantial ruler information is information with high privacy including personal information. Therefore, when introducing this system, only the requesting corporation requests the grant.It is conceivable to have a system that allowsI n addition, in the future, it will be necessary to access information on the actual ruler controlled by the commercial registry office.
  49. With regard to the expansion of access rights, further system

    reforms will be carried out while checking the operation status of this system.It is considered to conduct a study, including to perform positively. (9) Basis law and enforcement time regarding this system, first of all, by the Ordinance of the Ministry of Justice, aiming for the middle of the third year of Reiwa,It is reasonable to introduce the system promptly. On top of that, in the future, while seeing the operational status after the start of this system,It is also appropriate to consider whether or not it is necessary to revise the system. 2 Issues after introducing this system based on the operational status after the introduction of this system, the following items will be further examined.
