Shareholder Maps visualizes owners and subsidiaries of a company, with indirect ownership and shareholder power shown in each entity.
This is an example Owners map:
This is an example of a corporate entity in a map:
(1) The T-rank ID for legal persons consists of a two letter country code followed by the official national ID. For Finnish legal persons, both the dash and any leading zeros are removed. For natural persons, the ID is a country code followed by a P and then an internal T-rank ID. For unidentified entities, the ID starts with the country code for the data provider, followed by an X and an internal T-rank ID. Note that for natural persons, the country code in the ID is the nationality of the data provider, not necessarily country of residence or citizenship. For estates (Norway only), the ID startes with NOE and is followed by Municipality ID, Cadastral unit number (gårdsnummer), Property unit number (bruksnummer), Lease number (festenummer) and Unit number (seksjonsnummer), where the various IDs are seperated by dashes.
(1) The BvD-ID, consisting of a two letter country code collowed by some kind of ID that will vary from country to country. Entities with unknown country will have a BvD-ID that starts with YY (legal entities) or WW (natural persons).

Voting Power (only available if your account has access to Shareholder power and coalitions)
(5) Some entities might have a «+» before the name. The «+» indicates that some of the owners are hidden, either because their ownership is below the current threshold or to give a better overview. Right-click the entity (or click the entity, then click the «Load more owners»-button in the Info panel) to load more owners.
(6) If this entity is in control of or is controlled by the entity in the green box, the box will have a green frame. If it is not controlled or controlling, but the integrated ownership is above a threshold set in Advanced Options (25% by default), the box will have a grey frame. When the info panel is open for an entity, that entity will get a dark frame.
(7) A few key accounting figures might be displayed for legal person. This feature is turned on/off in the Preferences panel. The currency will vary from country to country: 1000NOK for Norway, 1000SEK for Sweden, EUR for Finland and mostly DKK for Denmark. Click the node and then the "More Info"-button in the Info panel for details regarding the currency and possibly more accounting figures. If the displayed figures are from consolidated statements, you will find a G to the right of the figures, otherwise an M.
Behind a name, the following symbols might occure:
✝: Dissolved entity
♀: Female
♂': Male
📈: Listed company
🆎: The company has several share classes. For most companies, we know the voting right rules for share classes or the share of voting rights.
There are a few special values other than XX% that might occur on the edges:
- MO (Majority Owner): The owning company is known to be a mother within the corporate structure, but we don't know the exact ownership. MO is translated to 50.01% when we do integrated ownership calculations.
- NG (Negligible): The ownership is less than 0.005%.
- BO-reg The owner is registered as a Beneficial Owner in a national Beneficial Ownership register.
If ownership and voting rights is known to be different for an ownership link, both values will be present - ownership will then be prefixed with O: while voting rights will be prefixed with V:.
Edges shown as dashed lines represent ownership/control that could be either direct or indirect. They are used when the only information we have is coming from a national beneficial owner register. For Finnish beneficial owners registry entries, we also consider these links as ownership links, since this register contains exact ownership values.
If an entity on either side of an edge is dissolved, the edge label will be marked with the ✝ symbol. Such ownership links are not used in any calculations for integrated ownership or voting power.
The edges represent Moody's shareholder data, where
the arrows point at the owned entity. Different
information providers provide different types of
data. Some report direct ownership only, some
total ownership and some a mix. The labels on the
edges are either on the format direct_ownership
(if only direct ownership is available) or on the
format direct_ownership / total_ownership. A
dashed line (as opposed to a solid line) tells
that we only know total ownership for this link,
and that there might not exist a direct link at
all.
Sometimes, there will be an asterisk (*) behind a
percentage within the boxes. The asterisk marks
that at least one total ownership link has been
involved in calculating this number. Total
ownership links introduces extra uncertainty in
the calculations - more information may be found
in the help section
What is integrated ownership.
In some maps, you will find non-numerical
ownership labels rather than exact percentages on
the edges. The meaning of the different values
are as follows (values used in caluclation of
Integrated ownership in parenthesis):
- > X% More than X% (X + 0.01%)
- < X% Less than X% (X - 0.01%)
- +/- X% About X% (X%)
- BR Branch (100%)
- FC Foreign company (100%)
- T Sole trader (100%)
- VE Vessel (100%)
- WO Wholly owned, ≥ 98% (98.00%)
- MO Majority owned, > 50% (50.01%)
- CQP1 50% + 1 share (50.01%)
- AA Administrative authority (50.01%)
- JO Jointly owned, 50% (50.00%)
- NG Negligible, ≤ 0.01% (0%)
- GP General Partners (0%)
- na. Not available - The ownership is reported to exist, but the percentage is unknown (0%)

DCH: Deputy Chairman of the Board
SPR: Sole Proprietor
CEO: Chief Executive Officer
GP: General/Unlimited Partner
MEM: Board Member
LP: Limited Partner
FOU: Founder
