These
are
the
10
UK
funds
with
the
largest
exposure
to
the
luxury
stock
Burberry,
which
fell
dramatically
on
Monday
July
15
The
profit
warning
came
as
a
result
of
a
slowdown
in
trading.
Burberry
stated
that,
if
this
continues,
the
company
expects
to
“report
a
H1
FY25
operating
loss
and
FY25
operating
profit
to
be
below
current
consensus.”
Burberry
also
revealed
chief
executive
Jonathan
Akeroyd
would
step
down
with
immediate
effect
to
be
replaced
by
Joshua
Shulman,
who
has
previously
held
chief
executive
positions
at
luxury
brands
Coach
and
Jimmy
Choo,
which
make
bags
and
shoes,
respectively.
Which
Funds
Own
Burberry
Shares?
As
a
large
luxury
brand,
Burberry
shares
can
be
found
in
lots
of
funds
available
for
sale
in
the
UK.
We
have
found
the
10
biggest
investors
in
the
UK.
To
be
included
in
the
list,
the
funds
must
have
reported
their
portfolio
holdings
in
2024
and
be
domiciled
in
the
UK.
We
have
then
sorted
them
by
portfolio
weighting
–
the
percentage
figure
for
how
much
of
the
fund
is
allocated
to
the
stock.
By
a
significant
margin,
the
largest
shareholder
in
Burberry
is Lindsell
Train
UK
Equity,
followed
by
Finsbury
Growth
and
Income
(FGT)
–
both
managed
by
Nick
Train.
Both
portfolios
hold
over
5%
in
Burberry,
and
Lindsell
Train
UK
Equity’s
share
accounts
for
almost
5%
of
Burberry’s
entire
market
cap.
However,
since
the
fund
last
reported
its
positions,
the
fund
had
sold
135,000
shares
in
the
company
(the
current
total
is
just
over
17
million
shares,
with
a
value
of
£184
million).
The
third
biggest
allocation
to
Burberry
belongs
to VT
Sorbus
Vector,
at
3.16%.
In
total,
five
funds
have
Burberry
allocations
above
2%,
and
all
the
top
10
have
at
least
1.5%.
Globally,
though,
2000
funds
own
some
portion
of
the
company,
and
all
would
have
felt
yesterday’s
share
price
drop.
