PARAGON BANKING GROUP PLC
PARAGON BANKING GROUP PLC is a Public Limited Company registered in United Kingdom under 02336032, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 17 January 1989 and lists its registered address as Solihull, United Kingdom. 5 shareholders are on record for PARAGON BANKING GROUP 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.

Those 24 subsidiaries span United Kingdom 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. Two of the 24 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
