Chapter 4 of Act (1991:980) sets forth that major shareholders are obligated under certain conditions to notify FI when buying or selling shares and that FI must disclose this information. Chapter 12, sections 10–11 of FFFS 2007:17 specifies the required content of the major shareholding notification.
