FAQ

What does FMX director Barbara Garza Laguera Gonda report in this Form 3?

She reports her initial holdings of FMX B Units and BD Units as a director. The positions are held directly, through joint accounts, and via a Voting Trust structure, with beneficial ownership generally limited to her actual pecuniary interest in the contributed securities.

How are B Units of Mexican Economic Development Inc (FMX) defined in this filing?

B Units are described as securities made up of five Series B Shares without par value. This structure means each B Unit represents a bundle of underlying Series B equity, rather than a single share, which affects how unit counts relate to the company’s share capital.

What are BD Units of FMX according to Barbara Garza Laguera Gonda’s Form 3?

BD Units consist of one Series B Share, two Series D-B Shares and two Series D-L Shares, all without par value. This combined structure creates a mixed security that ties together several series of FMX shares into a single tradable unit for reporting purposes.

How are FMX BD Units held through American Depositary Receipts in this Form 3?

Some BD Units are represented by American Depositary Shares, evidenced by ADRs. Each ADR corresponds to 10 BD Units, so depositary receipts aggregate multiple underlying BD Units into one U.S.-traded instrument, simplifying trading and custody for international investors in FMX securities.

What does the Voting Trust disclosure mean in the FMX Form 3 filing?

Securities are deposited in an irrevocable Voting Trust where multiple participants share voting power. The director is an indirect trust participant and disclaims beneficial ownership except for interests tied to her contributed securities, clarifying that she may not economically benefit from all trust-held FMX units.
