Shares Closely Held – datatype (NOSHCH)

Closely held shares are strategic shareholdings not considered freely available to ordinary investors.

An investor classified as strategic is considered strategic regardless of the security it holds or the percentage of shares it owns. Thus, an investor classified as an individual would be considered a strategic holding in each and every instrument they hold in their portfolio.

The following investor types that are to be considered Strategic:

	• Corporations
	• Holding Companies
	• Individuals
	• Government Agencies
	• Private Equity Firms

NOSHCH is updated on a monthly basis, at month end.

NOSHCH is mastered by the LSEG Ownership Group. Datastream supports an alternative free float methodology using a 5% threshold criteria, to view this content see NOSHFF.
