Beneficial ownership regulatory

"Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission"

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.

Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G regulatory

"Based upon Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G filings with the SEC, the Company is not aware of any person that beneficially owns 5% or more"

Proxy Statement regulatory

"This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 14A ("Amendment No. 1") is being filed to amend Sixth Street Specialty Lending, Inc.'s definitive proxy statement"

A proxy statement is a document companies send to shareholders ahead of a meeting that lays out the items up for a vote—like who will sit on the board, executive pay, and major corporate decisions—and provides background so shareholders can decide how to cast their votes or appoint someone to vote for them. Think of it as an agenda plus a ballot and briefing notes, important because the outcomes can change control, strategy, and value.

Security Ownership regulatory
