A nominee shareholder is a person or entity who holds shares in a company on behalf of another person (the beneficial owner). This is often done to protect the privacy of the beneficial owner, who may not want their name and address to be publicly available.

In some cases, a nominee shareholder can guarantee privacy. This is because the nominee shareholder is typically not required to disclose the identity of the beneficial owner to anyone, including the company itself. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. For example, the nominee shareholder may be required to disclose the identity of the beneficial owner to the government or to other regulatory authorities.

In other cases, a nominee shareholder may not be able to guarantee privacy. This is because the nominee shareholder may be required to disclose the identity of the beneficial owner to certain third parties, such as the company's creditors or lawyers.
