2018-06-20 Reguity Group AB (publ) just passed 50,000 unique owners and investors in its systems for shareholder registry services in Sweden. Growing at a rate of more than 1,500 companies per year Reguity Group now provides registry services to more than 5,000 public/private companies in Northern Europe with a total value of some 4 billion Euros.

A growing awareness about the disadvantages of going public too early have made an increasing number of companies postpone or even shelf plans to go public and list their shares on a stock exchange. At the same time investors are paying more attention than ever to private companies with unlisted stocks.

Initially mostly institutions and business angels were active in investing in private/unlisted companies, but with a growing number of crowdfunding platforms individuals are now entering this space in large numbers. By that the need for reliable and efficient tools to manage and support ownership is increasing, which is what Reguity Group provides.

Reguity Group is growing fast and has gained the trust of approximately 5,000 Swedish limited companies to assist them in managing their shareholder registries and formalities. Currently the inflow of companies into Reguity Group’s online services exceeds 1,500 per year.

Reguity Group also provides all owners and investors in Swedish companies subscribing to its services a free online custody account at VPZ.se. By visiting www.vpz.se owners and investors can view, manage and follow their portfolio of unlisted equities. Recently the pool of owners at VPZ.se passed 50,000 persons (individuals and corporates) and is by far the largest online pool of entrepreneurs and investors in unlisted and mainly private companies in Sweden.

2018-05-15 Swedish RegTech company Reguity Group AB (publ) consolidates a portfolio of digital services and becomes the leading digital platform for owners and investors in privately held companies in Northern Europe.

RegTech (Regulatory Technology) is more than a buzzword. It is a real time and cost saver. The amount of regulatory requirements for companies seems to be ever increasing. At the same time the requirements are often quite difficult to understand and time consuming to fulfill. By providing guided online tools for regulatory compliance, mistakes are avoided and quality increased at the same time as time spent successfully fulfilling these tasks decreases with as much as 75%.

Reguity Group offers a wide range of digital RegTech services for ownership management in private companies. All services are in full compliance with the domestic Companies Act in respective country as well as with the EU Directive for reporting beneficial ownership. Quality is a big issue today, since so much as close to 90% of all private companies has a non-compliant shareholder ledger.

CEO of Reguity Group Henrik Kristensen states; “The need for guided and time saving tools is huge if companies are to have a reasonable chance to fulfil all of today’s formal requirements”.

In Denmark, which is one of the countries that have advanced the implementation of the EU Directive 2013/0025 (COD) the furthest, Reguity Group has integrated its shareholder registry service with the Public Registry (“Det offentlige ejerregister”) so that mandatory reports are generated automatically. “That must be the goal for all EU countries.” Henrik says.
