Shareholders

Shareholders of Microsoft

Two shareholders are currently on record for Microsoft, reflecting the registre des actions nominatives (register of registered shares) maintained under the Code des sociétés et des associations rather than a public filing. The largest of these is Microsoft Ireland Research, holding 100% — a majority holding — followed by MSHC LLC at 0%. 1 shareholder shown is a company, so the ownership chain continues above this level for that holding; the other 1 is recorded as direct individual holder, though the record carries no UBO/PSC flag confirming beneficial-owner status.

Officers

5

Directors and officers of Microsoft

Three of the 5 officer records shown for Microsoft are current appointments, filed with Crossroads Bank for Enterprises (KBO/BCE). WILLIAM BEAL, Philippe Rogge and Valérie Pierre all serve as Director. The remaining 2 records shown (Frank Callewaert and Benjamin Owen Orndoff) are former appointments that have since been resigned. Management authority at Microsoft sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control. 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.

Data availability

The register reports 12 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
