INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS BY GEOGRAPHICAL AREA
INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS BY INVESTMENT STYLE
Analysis of the ownership structure by geographical area confirms the predominance of US and UK
investors, who together held about 50% of the capital owned by institutional investors at the end
of 2013; these were followed by Italian institutional investors with 14% and French investors with
8%. Compared with the prior year, the weighting of Asian investors - particularly from Singapore
and Japan - has increased.
About 73% of the capital held by institutional investors is owned by Value, Growth or GARP
(growth at a reasonable price) investment funds that, therefore, have a medium/long-term time
horizon. There has also been a steady increase in the number of shareholders adopting an Index
investment strategy, based on the principal stock indices. This increase is consistent with the
greater weight of Prysmian stock within such baskets.
