No designated holder found where the chain could be followed; it breaks at 1 point
About Ārvalsts komersanta UAB "Valiente" filiāle Latvijā, assessed under LV number 40203286467.
First said on 17 Sept 2026, and replaced on 18 Sept 2026. 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.
- Before it, from 16 Sept 2026 to 17 Sept 2026: “No designated holder found where the chain could be followed; it breaks at 1 point”
- After it, from 18 Sept 2026 and still current: “No designated holder found where the chain could be followed; it breaks at 1 point”
The words can stay the same across two verdicts: a verdict is replaced when a holding, a listing, a break or the signed rule table changes, even where its words do not.

- 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: Ārvalsts komersanta UAB "Valiente" filiāle Latvijā (Latvia FID frozen assets register).
