“beneficial owner”可以翻译为“受益所有人”,其英文释义为“a person who enjoys the benefits of ownership even though the title to some form of property is in another name.”,即某项资产的实际受益人,即便该资产登记在别人名下。
与之相对的是“legal owner”,可翻译为“法定所有人”,在大多数情况下,beneficial owner和legal owner是同一个人,以不动产(real estate)为例子,在大多数国家,不动产登记处会显示财产所有人的姓名,在某些情况下,beneficial owner可能不希望他们的个人隐私出现在公共数据中,在这种情况下,通常由受托人或其他实体代替beneficial owner,该受托人或实体即为legal owner。
参考例句:
If the consignee has given to the carrier erroneous information as to who the beneficial owner is, such consignee shall himself be liable for such additional charges.
如果收货人给予承运人有关受益所有人的信息有误,收货人自己应当负责由此发生的额外费用。
