Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Large institutional positions disclosed; voting and dispositive power held by registered advisers, not the named founder.

The Form 3 documents initial beneficial ownership by multiple Avenue-related entities totaling several million shares across three funds. The filing distinguishes legal ownership structure from practical control: registered investment advisers are stated to have sole voting and dispositive power for the funds' XBP shares, and managing entities disclaim beneficial ownership except for any pecuniary interest. For investors, this clarifies who can direct voting and disposition of these stakes.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Governance disclosure is detailed; control rests with advisers, and the founder disclaims voting rights over the reported holdings.

The submission provides layered entity disclosure: general partners, managing members, and delegated managers are identified, with explicit disclaimers of beneficial ownership by GP/partners and by Marc Lasry regarding voting/dispositive control. This is a standard structure for pooled investment vehicles and clarifies potential conflicts and voting authority relevant to shareholder governance.
