If JP Morgan were the institution they could have on sold to/transferred to 4 separate, legally remote, unconnected investment funds. That would avoid the need for TR1s.
Who was the broker to the placement? That may give us a clue to the buyers identity/identities.
Shorting 10% of the market cap may explain the massive SP drop post but that would be very risky strategy for an investor(s) putting £2million up front , especially if they have to mark to market their investments.
