SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC is a Public Limited Company registered in United Kingdom under 07145051, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 3 February 2010 and lists its registered address as London, United Kingdom. 5 shareholders are on record for SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL 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 29 September 2026.

Shareholders

Shareholders of SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC

Five shareholders are currently on record for SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC, held on the Confirmation Statement (CS01), filed under the Companies Act 2006. The largest of these is MFS Series Trust XIII-MFS Global Real Estate Fund, holding 15.2% — the largest recorded stake — followed by Vanguard International Stock Index-Total Intl Stock Indx at 8.4%; 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.

Directors and officers of SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC

Two of the 5 officer records shown for SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC are current appointments, filed with Companies House. Ian Hawksworth (appointed 2010-02-03) and Richard Akers (appointed 2023-03-06) both serve as Director. The remaining 3 records shown (Graeme Gordon, Demetra Pinsent and 1 other) are former appointments that have since been resigned. Management authority at SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC 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 33 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Group Structure

Group structure of SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC

SHAFTESBURY CAPITAL PLC has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 8 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 1 jurisdiction. 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.

  • CAPVESTCO LIMITED (United Kingdom)
  • CAPITAL & COUNTIES LIMITED (United Kingdom)
  • COVENT GARDEN MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITED (United Kingdom)
  • CAPCO COVENT GARDEN LIMITED (United Kingdom)
  • CAPCO INVESTMENT LONDON (NO.6) LIMITED (United Kingdom)
  • CAPCO GROUP TREASURY LIMITED (United Kingdom)
  • C & C MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITED (United Kingdom)
  • C&C PROPERTIES UK LIMITED (United Kingdom)

Data availability

Those 8 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. Three of the 8 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
