Committee News


Corporations, Authorities and Commissions


• Despite unanimous Republican opposition, the Corporations, Authorities, and Commissions Committee reported a bill (A.8544) enacting a chapter amendment to a 2023 law, the “LLC Transparency Act” (A.3484-A of 2023), which mandates the disclosure of beneficial owners of domestic and foreign LLCs and requires certain identifiers to be publicized in a business entity database.

o This chapter amendment adds additional requirements to the LLC Transparency Act such as mandating that the Department of State suspend any LLC from conducting business in-state that fails to file its beneficial owner disclosure or attestation of exemptions until it makes the necessary filings and empowering the Attorney General to assess fines of up to $500 for each day an LLC fails to provide such required documentation.

o This chapter amendment also broadens the Attorney General’s investigatory powers, culminating in the ability to bring an action to dissolve or cancel a domestic LLC (or annul the authority of a foreign LLC) that is delinquent in filing paperwork or that provides false or fraudulent information.

▪ This bill was reported to Codes
