Abstract

The era of globalization influences the development of the world economy and one of them is the existence of many forms of business associations, in this case called corporations. Corporations are organized groups and/or assets, whether they are legal entities or non-legal entities. Corporations are often used as a place or business turnover for the proceeds of crime which is called money laundering. Crimes that are often committed by corporations are crimes related to money laundering. To prevent and eradicate the crime of money laundering, corporations must register their beneficial owners. A beneficial owner is an individual who can appoint or dismiss directors, commissioners, administrators, managers or supervisors of a corporation, has the ability to control the Corporation, is entitled to and/or receive benefits from the Corporation either directly or indirectly, is the actual owner of the funds or shares of the Corporation and/or fulfill the criteria as intended in the Presidential Regulation. The method used in this research is normative juridical, which is research using statutory regulations as study material. The data collection technique used by researchers in this research is a library study technique where data is obtained from scientific writings and research in articles and other journals. In order to prevent and eradicate the crime of money laundering, Law Number 8 of 2010 concerning the Prevention and Eradication of the Crime of Money Laundering was issued, as well as Presidential Decree Number 13 of 2018 concerning the Application of the Principle of Recognizing the Benefits of Corporations in the Context of Preventing and Eradicating the Crime of Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing Crime. When establishing a corporation, the beneficial owners of the corporation must be registered. The hope of this regulation is to prevent and eradicate criminal acts of money laundering carried out by corporations under the pretext or business reasons of corporate businesses.
