Recital 1

(1)Member States are required to interconnect their national central beneficial ownership registers via the European Central Platform established by Article 22(1) of Directive (EU) 2017/1132 of the European Parliament and of the Council ² , and the interconnection should be set up in accordance with the technical specifications and procedures established by the implementing acts adopted by the Commission in accordance with Article 24 of that Directive. Nevertheless, the differences between the purpose, scope and content of the registers interconnected under Directive (EU) 2017/1132 and the central beneficial ownership registers established under Directive (EU) 2015/849 necessitate defining and adopting further technical specifications, measures and other requirements that ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of the system.
