South West Water doesn't actually exist!

South West Water doesn't actually exist, it is simply a brand name that is 100% owned by Pennon Group PLC @PennonGroup which is a FTSE 250 company, they also own Bournemouth Water @BmouthWater and Bristol water @BristolWater.

So Pennon Group own the three water companies, South West Water, Bournemouth Water and Bristol water, got it? Ok good, lets move on.

Pennon Group it self is own by a group of M&A, Asset managers and predatory investment companies. They control and call ALL the shots on everything with regards what the directors can or cant do at the water companies (or the assets that are controlled by Pennon Group.

So, who are calling the shots, who are green lighting the legal defense that we people of Briton don't have a right to the sea. It is the owners of Pennon Group of course. These are the ones who own, control and shadow direct all operations.

These owners are:

Lazard Asset Management LLC - 9.4% of shares outstanding.

Impax Asset Management Group Plc - 4.8%.

BlackRock, Inc. - 4.7%.

Ninety One UK Limited - 4.5%.

The Vanguard Group, Inc. - 4.1%.

Threadneedle Asset Management Limited - 3.5%.

Legal & General Investment Management Ltd. - 2.5%.

Royal London Asset Management Ltd. - 2.3%.

Schroder Investment Management Ltd. - 2.2%.

Wellington Management International Ltd. - 2.1%​

So they own 40.1% of Pennon Group and all Pennon Group assets, such as South West Water.

The rest are Retail stock market investors, much smaller asset management companies, Companies insiders (i,e company directors who have shares and stock options) and small investment funds. No body with any real power, all the power lies with the top owners, these are the people that are destroying our Rivers and Seas and preventing the board of directors at the water companies from being able to make any significant changes.

So, if you want South West Water to change into a beautiful butterfly, then we must ask their owners:

@Lazard: 9.4% Ownership. Behind their shrewd asset management lies a fierce M&A appetite, orchestrating the dance of capital with a tune indifferent to ecological costs. Lazard's financial maneuvers, often celebrated in boardrooms, cast long shadows over our natural world.

@ImpaxAM : 4.8% Ownership. Parading environmental concern with dolphins adorning their Twitter, yet critics accuse them of greenwashing. Their investment strategy, while outwardly green, often raises questions about depth and genuine sustainability amidst the pursuit of profit.

@BlackRock : 4.7% Ownership. A titan owning slices of the global economy, with political and policy influence that stretches wide. Yet, their expansive portfolio includes investments that have been criticized for environmental exploitation, highlighting the gap between profit and planet.

@ninetyone_uk : 4.5% Ownership. Proponents of sustainable investment, their narrative is of future-proofing wealth. However, skeptics argue if true sustainability can be achieved within the framework that prioritizes growth over ecological balance.

@Vanguard_Group: 4.1% Ownership. While democratizing investment, Vanguard's vast holdings include industries linked to environmental degradation. Their low-cost, high-volume strategy is scrutinized for the indirect role it plays in perpetuating unsustainable practices.

@ameriprise : 3.5% Ownership via Threadneedle Investments (who are owned by Ameriprise Financial) :

With a global investment footprint, their decisions ripple across economies but can sometimes muddy the waters of environmental stewardship. The balance between risk, return, and responsibility remains a contentious debate.

@LGIM: Legal and General : 2.5% Ownership. A leader in investment, claiming to incorporate sustainability. Yet, the real impact of their strategies on environmental preservation is questioned, as capital often flows where it grows fastest, not necessarily where it sustains.

@RLAM_UK Royal London Asset Management: 2.3% Ownership. Their mutual structure suggests a focus on member benefits, but does this extend to the greater good? The pursuit of profit within such institutions often leads to questions about their environmental and social governance commitments.

@Schroders: 2.2% Ownership With a global reach, Schroders’ investments have the power to drive change. However, the extent to which they prioritize ecological health over economic gain is part of a larger discussion on the role of asset managers in today’s environmental crisis.

@Wellington_Mgmt Wellington Management: 2.1% Ownership Their research-driven approach is lauded, yet the lens through which they view investment opportunities is critical. With the planet’s future at stake, their portfolio's environmental impact is under scrutiny.

These are the ones with ALL the power over South West Water, the leaders of the pack, Lazard, Blackrock ,Vanguard, Impax, Ninety one, These are the companies DIRECTLY responsible for the destruction of coastal waters in the South West, South West Water is simply am investment vehicle to extract the diligent and dutiful bill payers cash to them selfs, there owners, investors and clients.

The people in power will do anything to protect these companies, Anything, and no, you wont read there names been called out significantly in main stream media, zero chance. So maybe we should start making more noise?
