Once a company record has been created in Connect, it is possible to register associated individuals—such as Directors, Shareholders, and Persons with Significant Control (PSCs)—as separate entities. This allows individual checks to be performed against each person.

These individuals are included within the company details returned when creating a company or retrieving it via a GET request. Specifically, they can be found within the fullReport object.

Available Entity Types

"directors": {
  "currentDirectors": [
    {
      "id": "string",
      "name": "string"
    }
  ]
}

b) Shareholders

Shareholder information is found within the shareCapitalStructure object, which contains a shareHolders array.

Each shareholder record includes identifying information such as name and an associated id.

"shareCapitalStructure": {
  "shareHolders": [
    {
      "id": "string",
      "name": "string"
    }
  ]
}

"additionalInformation": {
  "personsWithSignificantControl": {
    "activePSC": [
      {
        "id": "string",
        "name": "string"
      }
    ]
  }
}

POST /api/v2/ci/companies/{id}/officer/{officerId}/entity

• Replace {id} with the Connect company id
• Replace {officerId} with the id of the Director, Shareholder, or PSC

This will create an entity record for the individual, enabling further checks (such as sanctions screening) to be performed independently of the company.
