Directorships, officer roles and shareholdings are searched across relevant registries.
Map connections

Verify each link
Each connection is checked for identity match and supported by a record.
Report the network

Our methodology
Appointment and shareholding records reveal how people and companies connect, including conflicts of interest and related parties. Accuracy depends on careful identity matching, especially for common names.
Beneficial ownership findings depend on what each jurisdiction requires to be disclosed; where disclosure stops, we say so.
