Provision of Sector Analysis for Ownership data

Description

ONS is looking to procure services to carry out an analysis of share ownership by beneficial owner. The objective is to determine, as accurately as possible, which sectors are the beneficial owners of companies incorporated in the UK and listed on the London Stock Exchange. ONS will provide any potential partner with a sample of approximately 200 UK companies, obtaining account details for each of the sampled companies, including the account ID, participant ID, the type of beneficial owner and the number of shares held in the account. This information will be made available to the successful bidder by January 2025. For each company, the ONS is looking to determine the beneficial owner of at least 90% of shares. Historically, just over half of the total value of shares in these accounts has been held in "pooled nominee" accounts, where there is more than one type of beneficial owner. The analysis provided by the successful bidder will also report on the beneficial owners of pooled nominee accounts. The deadline for providing the analysis to ONS would be by mid-April. ONS would also require bi-weekly meetings on the progress on the data procurement. The types of organisations that should consider contacting us include: Where possible, the ONS is particularly interested in receiving applications from organisations working on a collaborative basis with other organisations to ensure maximum coverage and ease of access to information required for the analysis.
