Beneficially ownedregulatory
"Amount beneficially owned: See the responses to Item 9"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.

Investment Adviser (IA)financial
"Wellington Management Company LLP - IA"
An investment adviser (IA) is a person or firm that provides personalized guidance on buying, selling, or holding investments and often manages client portfolios for a fee. Investors should care because an IA has a legal duty to act in the client's best interest—think of them as a navigator who plans and steers your financial journey—so their advice, fee structure and potential conflicts can directly affect returns and financial risk.
