A HK limited company has two shareholders. One is a natural person holding 95% of shares, the other is a BVI company holds 5% of the shares.

1. Does the BVI company need to provide its shareholder identity to Hong Kong Company Regristy?
2. Besides, when opens a bank acc, does BVI need to provide its shareholder identity to the banks. OR, banks allow company provides only the large shares of the shareholder?

1. No need as required.
2. Normally the bank needs the details of the major shareholder with an address proof as the account holder is a Hong Kong limited company. There maybe a difference if the account holder is a foreign company. This is the requirement of the Monetary Authority on the issue of money laundry, illegal money in and out etc. For details, please check with the bank for its policy on opening an account with a foreign shareholder having a minor shareholding.
