Shareholders
Shareholders of THE BERKELEY GROUP HOLDINGS PLC
THE BERKELEY GROUP HOLDINGS PLC is a UK-listed public company whose ordinary shares trade on the London Stock Exchange’s main market; because its voting shares are admitted to trading on a UK regulated market, the company has been exempt since 7 July 2017 from the requirement to maintain a persons-with-significant-control (PSC) register under the Companies House regime, and shareholder disclosure instead follows the FCA’s Disclosure and Transparency Rules (DTR5), under which only holders whose interest crosses regulatory notification thresholds are named. As at 29 May 2026 the company’s issued share capital comprised 100,358,629 ordinary shares, of which 8,105,936 were held in treasury, leaving 92,252,693 shares with voting rights, per the company’s total voting rights announcement. The only substantial shareholding identified during this research is BlackRock, Inc., which filed a TR-1 notification dated 22 June 2026 (following a threshold crossing on 19 June 2026) disclosing a total holding of 5.76% of voting rights, comprising 5.02% attached to shares held directly and 0.74% held through financial instruments, up from a previously notified 5.56%. No other substantial shareholder notifications were identified in this research, and the underlying share register – which for a listed company of this size is expected to include many further institutional and retail holders below the notification threshold – was not accessible.
Data availability
Classification: Major shareholders only. As a UK-listed company, THE BERKELEY GROUP HOLDINGS PLC discloses only shareholders whose holdings cross DTR5 notification thresholds; it does not maintain a public PSC register, and the great majority of its share register, held below those thresholds, is not publicly disclosed.

Group Structure
Group structure of THE BERKELEY GROUP HOLDINGS PLC
THE BERKELEY GROUP HOLDINGS PLC is the ultimate parent company of the Berkeley Group. Companies House’s persons-with-significant-control register records no controlling party for the company, consistent with its exemption from PSC disclosure as a company with voting shares admitted to trading on a UK regulated market; no other authoritative source identified during this research points to any corporate or individual entity holding control over THE BERKELEY GROUP HOLDINGS PLC. The company’s own investor-relations website states that the group develops residential property under a number of trading brands, including Berkeley, St James, St Edward, St George, St Joseph and St William, and separately operates a build-to-rent division; however, the specific subsidiary legal entities carrying out business under each of these brands, and their registration numbers, were not individually confirmed through Companies House filings during this research and are therefore not presented as verified relationships. Group information reviewed 16 September 2026.
Data availability
Classification: Parent only. THE BERKELEY GROUP HOLDINGS PLC’s position as the ultimate, apparently unowned parent of the group is supported by the absence of any PSC or other controlling-party filing; the identities and registration numbers of its operating subsidiaries were not independently verified in this research and are therefore omitted from a verified relationships table.
