The World’s Largest Open Database of Companies OpenCorporates is the global leader in legal entity data, providing transparent, authoritative information on over 240 million companies across 140+ jurisdictions. For more than a decade, we’ve been empowering the financial services sector with the trusted data needed to drive compliance, innovation, and growth. Our mission is simple but powerful: to make company information open, accessible, and connected, so that businesses, regulators, and innovators can build a safer, more transparent global economy. Understanding how companies connect has become a critical part of modern business intelligence. For assessing risk, managing compliance, or researching markets, you need to know more than just a company’s name and registration number - you need to know who owns what and how those entities relate. OpenCorporates, the world’s largest open database of legal entity data, will make its debut at Money20/20 USA (Oct 26–29, 2025, Las Vegas).

The company will showcase how standardised, transparent, official legal entity data empowers fintechs, RegTechs, and financial institutions to meet regulatory demands, enhance KYC/KYB, and combat financial crime.

The Santo Tequila case is a classic example of double brokering - when one freight company passes a shipment to another, and then another. At some point in the chain, a non-existent “carrier” steps in. These so-called phantom carriers look credible: they have names like Acme Logistics LLC, registered phone numbers, even government-issued identification numbers. But behind them, there’s often no legal entity, no employees, and sometimes not even a real address.

They win contracts, move goods - and then disappear. Companies, banks, and regulators can no longer rely on a single dataset or a single rulebook. They need to bring multiple pieces of information together to understand risk and make informed decisions. This is where legal-entity knowledge graphs (LE-KGs) come in. They act as the “map” of companies and their connections, showing ownership, control, and risk. Collecting, cleaning, and maintaining company data directly from 50 separate US state registries (plus DC and territories) is possible - but only with significant, ongoing expense in money, time, and specialist effort.

Variation across states in data availability, formats, fee models, and cadence - paired with legal/licensing friction - turns “do‑it‑yourself” into a long, laborious program rather than a one‑off project.

Yesterday, Companies House published their first strategic intelligence assessment. If I'm completely honest, I was rather blown away by it. Last week, the Business Registry Insights group published a fascinating report on penalties issued by legal entity registers around the world. This is, admittedly, a bit wonkish, but at OpenCorporates we are proud to be wonkish about legal entity register data (in fact, a working definition of wonkish could be - unsexy details that matter... You know that game where a ball is placed under one of three cups and they get shuffled around until you lose track of where the ball is? Well, imagine that ball is actually billions of dollars, and instead of cups, it’s companies.

Companies that don’t actually do anything. Companies that only exist on paper. Welcome to the world of shell corporations. OpenCorporates was founded over 12 years ago, and since then has become the default source for trusted legal entity data. It has also directly and indirectly inspired countless companies and projects in the open company data space. This document highlights some of these, and our relationship with them.

Legal entities are the fundamental structures that underpin the entire business world. In the highly connected digital age we live in, they also underpin the whole of society as we know it. This is why it’s vital that the data defining them – their existence, ownership, activities and beneficiaries – is not just public, but connected in a single unified dataset, available for all. For over 12 years we have led the cause for open data. We’ve built a data platform to provide a single unified view of the company universe. Data that’s trusted, rich and open to all.

But we are not alone. Our partners are some of the world’s most influential advocates for corporate transparency and open data. Below is an incomplete list of the ones we work closest with. The Global LEI Foundation was founded 10 years ago, at the behest of the G20, following the financial crisis, when regulators and the financial industry struggled to identify the counterparties of the financial contracts... Even though OpenCorporates was a new and relatively small organisation then, it was invited to be a part of the Industry Advisory Panel that advised on the LEI System’s structure, as it had a...
