When performing due diligence on a potential business client, knowing who the shareholders are can be very beneficial. It’ll help you understand the company structure, give you an idea of the resources they have access to and, if any of the shareholders themselves have financial struggles, it’ll give you an understanding of the financial stability of the company itself.
Checking shareholders with Companies House
Companies House holds detailed information on every limited company in the UK. This includes the shareholder information that can prove invaluable to your financial assessment of a business.
Here’s how to check the shareholders of a company with Companies House:
1. Visit the Companies House website
Navigate to the Companies House website.
2. Search for the company
Use the search function to find the company that you wish to check. You can search either by company name or registration number.
3. Review company details
Once you have found the company, click on it to access detailed information.
4. Navigate to the ‘Filing History’ section
Under the filing history tab, you’ll see the information previously filed by the company. This includes the shareholders.
Automatically checking a company’s shareholders
Manually accessing shareholder data through Companies House is both time-consuming and expensive. Particularly if the company has a long and complicated filing history or a complex shareholder structure. However, this data is incredibly important and often integral to bringing on new business clients.
