[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 656565, member: 4386"] If you consider Vanguard, Australian Shares Index Fund and Vanguard International Stock Index Fund hold equal top ownership above all other investment funds, Vanguard Development Markets Index Fund hold half as much as them, and smaller percentages are held by Vanguard FTSE All-world ex-US Index Fund and Vanguard Pacific Ex-Japan Stock Index Fund hold smaller percentages of Origin, The names have nothing to do with the nationality of those who are invested in each of these funds, it is just Vanguards way of giving you the option to focus on receiving dividends dominantly from different regions of the world. HOWEVER, I realise now that that was just the ownership by investment funds - I had a hunt and the holdings by investment funds is not quite as big as institutional investor holdings. I don't have details but I know AustralianSuper (ACTU and AiGroup) is a major institutional investor in Origin, so your comments re Origin ownership being Australian at present may be correct (they might have the controlling interest). But I think it illustrates the difficulties in knowing what is an "Australian" company. [/QUOTE]
