EU Inc (the 28th regime) · 2026/0074(COD)
Opposes the EU Inc. proposal because it undermines legal certainty, employee and creditor protection, and facilitates money laundering and fraud.
Prevent unrestricted access to company incorporation and share transfer processes to avoid misuse such as money laundering, identity theft, social and tax fraud.
“EU Inc. runs counter to identity verification, money laundering, proliferation prevention and independent control by notaries/company register and allows unrestricted access to money laundering, misuse of identity, social and tax fraud through an uncontrolled incorporation/transfer of shares process.”

Maintain involvement of notaries and commercial registers to ensure legal certainty and prevent money laundering during company formation and registration.
“Online formation and registration of a limited company in the commercial register within 24 hours has long been a reality in Austria without the existing legal certainty (involvement of notaries and the commercial register) and the prevention of money laundering (by notaries as gatekeepers) being abandoned without justification.”

Open-source context and state for AI: it keeps only what matters for the question.
In WhoShapedIt: Reads every lobby submission and position paper and each official text, cut into passages, and judges each passage against nine questions (who can use EU Inc, workers on the board, tax…), so every ask and every step is read on the passages that address it.
Open-source Svelte components for clean, accessible interfaces.
In WhoShapedIt: The status, the timeline, the theme picker, the camps of lobbies and the organisation pages.
