Radial Map
Instant visual insights about people and company connections
Radial Maps are interactive visual maps to extract and analyse connections between people and companies.

Analysis can also be deepened conveniently by expanding on entities to show the next layer of connections.
The information in Radial Maps can be saved and exported both as high-resolution images or data spreadsheets.
Applicable Uses
Interconnection Map
A powerful way to identify associates and indirect influence
Interconnection Maps identify how people and companies could be connected directly or through intermediate connections. They answer the question: “How are these people and companies connected?”
Users can interconnect up to 10 people or companies at a time. The degree of separation may also be adjusted by a user to show less or more indirect paths.
Applicable Uses
Legal Beneficial Ownership Map
A quick and safe way to conduct ownership checks
Legal Beneficial Ownership (LBO) maps exhaustively search for a company’s beneficial owners, through every layer of shareholding, and presents the information in a visual hierarchy map.
Powered by official data, and designed with the support of the Singapore Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (Singapore ICSA), our LBO maps are an efficient and reliable way to conduct ownership checks.
In addition to showing shareholding structure, our LBO maps can also show voting power, which is shown as a percentage of ordinary shares held by shareholders at each level.
Applicable Uses
Investee Companies Search
Fastest way to discover a person’s or company’s ownership interests
Handshakes Investee Companies Search is the fastest way to discover a person’s or company’s ownership interests in Singaporean and Malaysian companies. It is the perfect complement to our widely used Legal Beneficial Ownership (LBO) Search. While the LBO search uncovers the layers of beneficial ownership behind a company, Investee Companies Search reveals all ownership interests that a person or company holds.
“What companies do my business partners own?”
“How much share ownership assets does this company have?”
“How can I discover and value effective interest in indirectly owned companies?”
If you’ve ever asked these questions, then a Handshakes Investee Companies Search can help you.
Providing the answers in a quick and cost-efficient manner, our intelligent algorithms drill through each layer of shareholding information to exhaustively traverse all possible layers of direct and indirect interests of a subject for:
1) Vested and deemed ownerships and shareholdings of an individual
2) Primary and secondary end corporations and subsidiaries of a company
The results are generated instantly and visualised as an interactive hierarchy chart for you to manipulate and analyse.
Sample Case
39 companies, 5 layers deep, mapped out in 1 second.
Applicable Uses
