The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 (ECCTA) received Royal Assent on 26 October 2023, marking a major legislative milestone for both the fight against economic crime and the powers of Companies House.
This ECCTA hub is a touchpoint for our updates on the latest ECCTA news and for more detailed insights into what the ECCTA might mean for your business. The ECCTA has three main objectives, in summary:
preventing organised criminals and other bad actors from using corporate structures to abuse the UK’s open economy;
strengthening the UK’s response to economic crime; and
improving the services delivered by Companies House.
The ECCTA is an ambitious and wide-ranging piece of legislation and is being implemented through secondary legislation and guidance.
