RE: Rns out! UBS sold out ?25 Jan 2026 10:29
Take a bow Trisor, sought the council of AI and got the definitive answer, note it says the threshold in the UK is 3%
Why do major shareholders not have to declare the amount of their holdings if its below 5%?
They report “zero” once they go below 5% because, in most regimes, the reporting duty is tied to crossing that 5% “substantial holding” threshold; once you fall under it, you are no longer a disclosable major holder, so your notifiable stake is treated as nil for that regime’s purposes.
How the rule works....
Disclosure rules are built around specific trigger points (for example 3% in the UK, 5% in many other countries, then 10%, 15%, 20% etc.). When a holding reaches, exceeds or falls below one of these, a notification must be made.
