MERCURY NZ LIMITED
MERCURY NZ LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in New Zealand under 9429037705305, and its current status with New Zealand Companies Office is active. The company was incorporated on 16 December 1998 and lists its registered address as Auckland, New Zealand. 5 shareholders are on record for MERCURY NZ LIMITED, 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 New Zealand Companies Office and was last updated on 22 September 2026.

Shareholders of MERCURY NZ LIMITED
Five shareholders are currently on record for MERCURY NZ LIMITED, reflecting the share register maintained under section 87 of the Companies Act 1993 rather than a public filing. The largest of these is The Sovereign In Right Of New Zealand Acting By AND THROUGH THEIR MINISTER OF FINANCE AND MINISTER FOR SOE, holding 80.5% — a majority holding — followed by CUSTODIAL SERVICES LIMITED at 2.7%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes. 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.

Data availability
Those 7 subsidiaries span New Zealand jurisdiction, 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. Three of the 7 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
