Проектот има за цел да ги унапреди транспарентноста, отчетноста и ефикасноста во трошењето на јавните пари преку поттикнување и промовирање на користењето на информациите за вистинските сопственици во борбата против корупцијата. Се очекува проектот да придонесе кон фактичко користење на податоците од Регистарот на вистински сопственици како инструмент во борбата против корупцијата.
