LSEG World-Check (UBO Check)

Overview

LSEG, the London Stock Exchange Group, sells UBO Check as part of its World-Check One screening platform. The product combines beneficial ownership data from Dun & Bradstreet or Sayari with LSEG’s World-Check risk intelligence, which comprises more than 5.5 million risk records^[27].

LSEG states that the ownership data covers companies in more than 220 countries and dependent territories and cites more than 430 million ownership connections, with daily updates and history from 2018^[27]. Users can visualise relationships, ownership shares and paths to a target entity, create linked cases, add notes, delegate tasks and mark cases for review or refresh, and can export ownership structures and case details^[27]. It is used through the World-Check One desktop or API, with PDF and text outputs^[27].

UBO Check is a screening-workflow feature rather than a standalone data product: its value is that owners found in the structure can be screened against World-Check in the same case. The page does not describe automatic alerts on ownership changes, bulk data delivery or source documents for each link, and prices are available only on request^[27].
