    Direct answer

    EntityFlo automates RBO (Central Register of Beneficial Ownership) compliance for Irish companies. It calculates beneficial ownership at the natural-person level, prepares RBO filings, and tracks the 14-day update window when ownership changes.

    The problem

    What breaks once you pass five entities.

    01

    Look-through ownership is a permanent rolling project

    For a portfolio of 20 entities with cross-ownership, tracing beneficial owners by hand never really finishes.

    02

    The 14-day window is easy to miss

    Updates must be filed within 14 days of any ownership change, and failure is a criminal offence carrying fines up to €500,000.

    03

    Senior managing officials get overlooked

    When no individual crosses the 25% threshold, officers must be filed instead: a rule that's easy to miss manually.

    What you get

    Look-through ownership without the manual work

    EntityFlo automates the calculation, looking through every intermediate vehicle and identifying who must be reported every time the structure changes.

    Look-through calculation, automated

    Trusts, foreign parents, holding companies and SPVs are traced automatically to identify the ultimate individuals.

    The 14-day window, tracked

    Cap table movements, trust changes and control-relevant appointments trigger the RBO clock immediately.

    Audit trail for every filing

    Every RBO filing is timestamped and linked to the exact ownership data it was generated from.

    Senior managing officials, handled

    When no individual crosses the threshold, EntityFlo applies the fallback rule automatically.

    How it works

    The EntityFlo operating model.

    1

    Map every entity, trust, holding company and SPV in the ownership chain.

    2

    Calculate beneficial ownership at the natural-person level automatically.

    3

    Fall back to senior managing officials when no individual crosses 25%.

    4

    Detect ownership changes and start the 14-day update window immediately.

    5

    Keep a timestamped audit trail linking every filing to its source data.

    The split

    What RBO compliance actually requires

    Every Irish corporate entity must identify beneficial owners above 25% and file them with the RBO, with updates required within 14 days of any change.

    FAQ

    The questions buyers actually ask.

    Which entities must file with the RBO?

    All Irish-incorporated corporate and legal entities, including private limited companies, DACs, CLGs, unlimited companies, partnerships and ICAVs.

    What if there are no beneficial owners above 25%?

    In that case, the senior managing officials (typically directors and senior officers) must be filed as beneficial owners. EntityFlo handles this automatically.

    Does EntityFlo file directly with the RBO?

    EntityFlo prepares the RBO data and tracks the 14-day window. Direct integration with the RBO portal is on the roadmap; today, filings are prepared in EntityFlo and lodged via the RBO portal.

    How is this different from EU 4MLD/5MLD generic tools?

    EntityFlo applies Irish RBO rules specifically: thresholds, senior managing officials fallback, 14-day windows: rather than generic EU beneficial ownership logic.

    Can EntityFlo handle complex trust structures?

    Yes. The look-through calculation traces ownership through trusts, foreign parents, holding companies and SPVs to identify the ultimate individuals.
