The British bank specified that it indirectly held, as of that date, 7,341,583 Ubisoft shares representing an equivalent number of voting rights, or 5.45% of the capital and 4.92% of the voting rights of the French video game publisher.
This threshold breach resulted from an acquisition of Ubisoft shares on the open market. On this occasion, Barclays Capital Securities Limited, a subsidiary of Barclays, individually crossed the same threshold.
