Shareholder Analysis Overview

Argus Vickers provide vital Share Register Analysis information in UK and Irish quoted and listed public limited companies on the LSE, AIM and Irish markets.

If you are an investment bank equity trader, corporate financier, institutional stockbroker or investor relations consultant and you need to find out who owns ‘what’ and ‘how much’ within a public listed company, Argus Vickers’ professional analysts and products gives very clear visibility as to who are the real owners (beneficial owners) and who effectively has control (fund managers).

From our Head Office in London and with staff located at registrars nationwide we produce an equity share register analysis system which contains the most comprehensive and timely UK and Irish share ownership information of its type available. You can be assured that all of the analysis we undertake is up-to-date, as public limited companies and many limited companies are analysed on either a monthly or quarterly basis, depending upon client requirements.

The detailed information we provide discloses:

• Registered Name - including Nominee names and Account Designations,
• Fund Manager - including the number and percentage of share the control
• Beneficial Owner - the actual owners of the stock who have voting rights
• The coverage is typically between 80% to 95% of a company’s Issued Share Capital, but can be as complete as a 100% if required. The reports contain fundamental information such as the Issued Share Capital, Market Capitalisation, the Registrar, Geographical location for both the Manager and Beneficial holders, Investor type, history of 5 previous cycles and sector and market weightings.

The depth and breadth of coverage (of ordinary stock of LSE, AIM companies, Investment Trusts and their Irish equivalents) and analysis methodology is unique, ensuring the highest possible level of accuracy and completeness of information to avoid any ‘double counting’ of share holdings.

If you are a broker that wishes to white label our analysis or incorporate the data within your research then that isn’t a problem either, simply give us a call to find out how.

All of our share report analysis is easy to view. We make it available as PDFs, Excel spreadsheets or through data feeds, dedicated client portals or our web-based subscription service The Owners Service. You can find out more about The Owners Service and our other services in the rest of this section of the web site.
