We can see that private companies own the lion's share in the company with 40% ownership. In other words, the group stands to gain the most (or lose the most) from their investment into the company. \n Meanwhile, individual investors make up 30% of the company’s shareholders. \n Let's take a closer look to see what the different types of shareholders can tell us about Hong Fok. \n Check out our latest analysis for Hong Fok \n\n\n\n  SGX:H30 Ownership Breakdown March 30th 2025\n \n\nWhat Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About Hong Fok?\n Institutions typically measure themselves against a benchmark when reporting to their own investors, so they often become more enthusiastic about a stock once it's included in a major index. We would expect most companies to have some institutions on the register, especially if they are growing. \n Less than 5% of Hong Fok is held by institutional investors. This suggests that some funds have the company in their sights, but many have not yet bought shares in it. So if the company itself can improve over time, we may well see more institutional buyers in the future. When multiple institutional investors want to buy shares, we often see a rising share price. The past revenue trajectory (shown below) can be an indication of future growth, but there are no guarantees. \n\n\n\n  SGX:H30 Earnings and Revenue Growth March 30th 2025\n \n\n Hedge funds don't have many shares in Hong Fok. Looking at our data, we can see that the largest shareholder is Hong Fok Land Holding Limited with 22% of shares outstanding. Meanwhile, the second and third largest shareholders, hold 14% and 12%, of the shares outstanding, respectively. Sim Eng Cheong, who is the second-largest shareholder, also happens to hold the title of Co-Chief Executive Officer. Additionally, the company's CEO Pin Chuan Cheong directly holds 2.8% of the total shares outstanding. \n To make our study more interesting, we found that the top 4 shareholders control more than half of the company which implies that this group has considerable sway over the company's decision-making. \n While studying institutional ownership for a company can add value to your research, it is also a good practice to research analyst recommendations to get a deeper understand of a stock's expected performance. Our information suggests that there isn't any analyst coverage of the stock, so it is probably little known. \nInsider Ownership Of Hong Fok\n While the precise definition of an insider can be subjective, almost everyone considers board members to be insiders. Management ultimately answers to the board. However, it is not uncommon for managers to be executive board members, especially if they are a founder or the CEO. \n Insider ownership is positive when it signals leadership are thinking like the true owners of the company. However, high insider ownership can also give immense power to a small group within the company. This can be negative in some circumstances. \n It seems insiders own a significant proportion of Hong Fok Corporation Limited. Insiders own S$169m worth of shares in the S$635m company. This may suggest that the founders still own a lot of shares. You can  click here to see if they have been buying or selling.  \nGeneral Public Ownership\n With a 30% ownership, the general public, mostly comprising of individual investors, have some degree of sway over Hong Fok. While this size of ownership may not be enough to sway a policy decision in their favour, they can still make a collective impact on company policies. \nPrivate Company Ownership\n We can see that Private Companies own 40%, of the shares on issue. Private companies may be related parties. Sometimes insiders have an interest in a public company through a holding in a private company, rather than in their own capacity as an individual. While it's hard to draw any broad stroke conclusions, it is worth noting as an area for further research. \nNext Steps:\n I find it very interesting to look at who exactly owns a company. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too.
