Abstract

This research examines the legal issues relating to holding Beneficial Owners (BOs) liable for corporate wrongdoing. This research aims to examine the regulations regarding the involvement of Beneficial Owners in Indonesian law and evaluate their criminal liability for violations of corporate law. The research method includes literature review, case analysis, and reference to relevant regulations. The research findings show that the position of beneficial owners in limited liability companies is not clearly regulated in national laws and regulations such as the Limited Liability Company Law and the Capital Market Law. However, the issuance of Presidential Regulation No. 13/2008 has provided a definition and standard for beneficial owners, which specifically refers to individuals who hold ultimate power and have full control over the company. Regarding the criminal liability of beneficial owners, the main consideration is the role of the beneficial owner. If beneficial owners plan or authorize corporate abuses to hide the proceeds of criminal activity, they may face criminal liability under applicable laws and regulations.
