BlackRock crosses threshold in Orange capital

On March 7, 2025, New York-based asset management giant BlackRock, Inc., filed a disclosure statement for its stake in Orange. The manager reduced its holding to 4.85% of Orange's capital and 4.07% of its voting rights, thereby falling below the regulatory threshold of 5% ownership.

This decrease is primarily due to a reduction in the number of shares held as collateral. Despite this decline, BlackRock continues to actively manage Orange shares for the benefit of its clients and funds. The company initially held 129,139,192 shares, equivalent to voting rights.
