How Many Uk Stock Exchange Companies Are Majority Owned By British Entities?

[sevenOP]

Same question for US and China stock exchanges re nationality of ownership.

[Zacs-Master]

What do you mean by 'British entities', companies or individuals? Or do you mean are the majority of shareholders British?

[sevenOP]

Zacs-Master, I mean the majority of the shares are owned by British people or British companies.

I'm not sure how we'd ever know. Shares can be owned by individuals, pensions schemes, insurance companies, banks, governments, investment funds- and knowing the national breakdown of each of these would be very difficult

There's an article here on European shares

This may be of interest- but again I don't see how you can identify the national identity of all the share owners
