Insights
BlackRock reports a >10% stake in T. Rowe Price Group.
BlackRock's Schedule 13G lists a beneficial ownership of 21,957,917 shares (10.1%) as of 03/31/2026. This filing signals a large passive position by an investment manager rather than an active acquisition statement.
Future filings could show changes in voting or disposition if holdings cross regulatory thresholds or if BlackRock reclassifies its intent; current disclosures identify sole voting and dispositive powers in the stated amounts.
Schedule 13G disclosure is routine for passive institutional holdings.
The form follows the Release No. 34-39538 framework by aggregating Reporting Business Units and discloses voting and dispositive powers for the reported shares. The filing includes required Item 6 language about other persons receiving dividends or proceeds.
Signatory and exhibit references (Exhibit 24 and Exhibit 99) are present; any material change in ownership or intent would require amendment under securities rules.

Schedule 13Gregulatory
"In accordance with SEC Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998)"
A Schedule 13G is a formal document that investors file with the government when they acquire a large ownership stake in a company, usually for investment purposes rather than control. It helps keep the public informed about who owns significant parts of a company's shares, which can influence how the company is managed and how investors make decisions. Filing this schedule is important for transparency and understanding the ownership landscape of publicly traded companies.
beneficial ownershipfinancial
"Amount beneficially owned: 21957917"
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
sole dispositive powerregulatory
"Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of: 21957917"
Sole dispositive power is the exclusive legal authority to decide what happens to a security — for example, whether to sell, transfer, or retain shares — without needing anyone else’s permission. Investors care because it signals who truly controls the economic outcome of an investment: like holding the only key to a safe, the holder can realize gains or losses and may trigger regulatory reporting, insider rules, or influence over corporate ownership.
