Ownership test · EU owning or controlling
No designated holder found where the chain could be followed; it breaks at 1 point
About FIRN EU sp. z o.o., assessed under PL number 0000408473.
First said on 18 Sept 2026, last confirmed on 24 Oct 2026. It is the current verdict under this rule. A daily run that reaches the same verdict on the same holdings, listings and breaks confirms it. When anything it rests on changes, a new verdict begins at a new address.
What it says
No party listed under this regime was found on the part of the chain that could be followed. The chain breaks at 1 point, and past a break nothing is known. Natural persons hold one holding in the chain, including 100% of the company directly. The register publishes that person's name masked, so it was compared with no designated person.
- Designated share
- None found
- Threshold
- 50% or more
- Chain
- Breaks at 1 point
- Nearest designated party
- The company is itself designated.Found across every list on file, not only those this rule counts.
Notes
- 1 natural-person holding is published with a masked name and was compared with nobody.
- Natural-person holders are compared with designated persons by name only. A match is reported and never counted, because the registers publish no identifier that could confirm it.
The chain
Holdings the result passes through
None: no holding carries a designated party's share down to the company.
Holdings read
1 holding was read in the chain, and its holder is not published as a company. Natural persons hold 1 of them, including 100% of the company directly. 1 is published with the name masked. A verdict never keeps a person's name: a person appears in it as a holding of a stated share.

Where the chain breaks
The chain could not be followed past 1 point, and past a break nothing is known. An answer about the chain covers only the part before them.
- Person's name masked: 1
Person's name masked at the company itself, 100% of it
A person holding 100% is published with the name masked, so whether that person is designated cannot be asked at all.

- A jointly held share
- The texts read do not settle it, so a result that rests on one goes to a reviewer.

- Signed off
- On 17 Sept 2026, from texts read on 13 Sept 2026.

Caveats
- Ownership raises a presumption that the listed person controls the entity and its assets. The entity may rebut it case by case.
- Regulations 269/2014 and 2580/2001 define owning and controlling themselves. For the other EU regimes read here, the same test is the one the Council sets out in its Best Practices, which are not legally binding.
- The Commission says control over an entity also reaches that entity's own subsidiaries, but publishes no worked example with percentages. A company owned at the threshold is treated as holding its own shares for the listed person on that basis.
- Control without the threshold stake is part of this test and cannot be read from a shareholder register, so an outcome short of the threshold does not mean the company is not controlled.
- 1 party in this chain is listed under a regime whose ownership rule has not been verified here, and was not counted: FIRN EU sp. z o.o. (Poland MSWiA sanctions list).
