HAMMERSON PLC is a Public Limited Company registered in United Kingdom under 00360632, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 17 April 1940 and lists its registered address as London, United Kingdom. 5 shareholders are on record for HAMMERSON PLC, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 18 September 2026.

Shareholders

5

Five shareholders are currently on record for HAMMERSON PLC, held on the Confirmation Statement (CS01), filed under the Companies Act 2006.

The largest of these is Vanguard Tax Managed Fund-Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund, holding 11.6% — the largest recorded stake — followed by Vanguard Intl Equity Index Fds-FTSE All World ex U.S.Small Cap Index at 5.8%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes.

The register reports 14 shareholders in total, though only the top 5 by holding are shown in this view.

Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

The Director of HAMMERSON PLC on record is George Gwilt; 5 officers are shown here, filed with Companies House.

The register reports 60 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

HAMMERSON PLC has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 14 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 3 jurisdictions. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 14 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, France, Ireland jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Four of the 14 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
