The true picture of
who owns your company

Most ASX share registers obscure up to 60% of real ownership behind nominee accounts. Equaira's Underlying Holders Analysis (BHA) cuts through this opacity by revealing beneficial owners, tracking movements, and preparing you for every corporate event.

01

Revealing All Underlying Shareholders

The analysis uncovers the true shareholders who may not be listed in the company's register, including those sitting beneath nominee accounts or investment funds, giving you a complete view of beneficial ownership.

02

Tracking Shareholding Movements

For any subsequent analysis, Equaira tracks buying and selling activity among underlying shareholders. This provides ongoing insight into shareholder changes over time, revealing trends before they surface on the public register.

03

Understanding Market Activity

The analysis identifies exactly who is buying or selling, whether institutional investors, retail shareholders, or strategic stakeholders, offering precise insight into market movements and shifts in positioning.

04

Better Prepared for Corporate Events

By understanding shareholder composition, companies are far better prepared for AGMs, roadshows, and corporate events, anticipating voting behaviour, investor sentiment, and activist risk well in advance.

Data-driven insight at
every level of the market

Beyond ownership identification, each analysis is enriched with comprehensive market data to give your team the full commercial context behind your register.

Detailed Market Data

Access granular, time-series market data including daily price movements, volume profiles, bid-ask spreads, and liquidity metrics. Understand the full trading environment surrounding your stock to contextualise ownership shifts and shareholder behaviour.

Price & Volume Liquidity Metrics Spread Analysis

Peer Performance

Benchmark your company's shareholder base and trading activity against a curated peer group. Understand how your ownership composition, institutional concentration, and retail participation compare to comparable ASX-listed companies in your sector.

Relative Index Performance

Three capabilities
in every analysis

Each BHA report combines all three analytical lenses of ownership identification, movement tracking, and market activity, into a single, actionable picture of your register.

01

Uncover True Shareholders

Reveal underlying beneficial owners not visible on the register, including investors holding through nominee and custodian structures. Know exactly who your shareholders are, not just the names on the register.

02

Analyse Shareholder Movements

Monitor changes in ownership over time, highlighting buying and selling activity to identify emerging trends and shifts in positioning before they become apparent to the broader market.

03

Gain Insight into Market Activity

Understand where trading activity is coming from, including institutional investors, retail holders, and strategic stakeholders, to inform your IR strategy with precision and confidence.

The intelligence that drives
sharper decisions

Nominee holdings can represent up to 60% of the register

Nominee Account Opacity

Up to 60% of an ASX share register may be held through nominee accounts, making true ownership virtually invisible without specialist underlying holder analysis.

IR

Targeted IR Strategy

Target your investor relations strategy where it will have the greatest impact, supporting strategic planning and enabling more effective corporate actions and capital raises.

Early

Register Behaviour Intelligence

Gain early insight into register behaviour to help anticipate shareholder trends, activist positioning, and voting sentiment before they fully crystallise.

Four capabilities that put you

Line of Sight on Voting Outcome

Provides a clear, daily view of the projected outcomes for each resolution on the agenda, so management knows where they stand well before the meeting date and can act accordingly.

Advanced Knowledge of Activist Voting

Offers early insight into potential activist voting activity occurring under custodians, identifying coordinated against-votes or abstentions before they become visible to the market or the board.

Real-Time Custodian Voting Instructions

Provides live updates on custodian voting instructions before the submission of proxy forms, giving you a critical window to engage shareholders and influence outcomes before proxy deadlines close.

Overlay of Outstanding Votes

Allows real-time tracking of outstanding votes, comparing them against currently lodged votes. Understand exactly how much of the register remains unvoted and what the swing potential is for each resolution.
