About ELMEC TRADE OU, assessed under EE number 14291975.

First said on 16 Sept 2026, and replaced on 17 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.

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.

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.

Notes

  • 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.

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.

  • No holders published: 1
  • No holders published at the company itself

    Estonia e-Business Register (shareholders) holds no shareholder rows for this company. Neither Baltic register publishes the shareholders of a joint-stock company, so this is not evidence that it has none.

Caveats

  • Holdings of different designated persons are not added together unless the shares are subject to a joint arrangement between them or one controls the rights of another.
  • 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: ELMEC TRADE OU (US Consolidated Screening List).

Texts the rule rests on

  • OFSI, UK financial sanctions general guidance (updated 12 May 2026)

    Section 4.1 (more than 50% of shares or voting rights, or control), 4.1.3 (a designated person owns what it owns jointly with another) and 4.1.4 (holdings of different designated persons not simply aggregated)

  • The Russia (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, Schedule 1

    Paragraph 2 (each joint holder of a share is treated as holding that share), paragraph 3 (joint arrangements), paragraph 4 (more than 50% of share capital), paragraph 9 (indirect holding through a chain of majority stakes). Each UK regulation this test is applied under was read, and carries the same definition and rules.
