January saw post year-end normalisation, with selective convergence resuming while the median voting premium remained stable, confirming no systemic repricing of control across Europe’s dual-class universe.
Liquidity and structure drove outcomes, with convergence working in scalable, index-exposed pairs, while a small number of structurally constrained names continued to dominate dispersion.
Opportunities remain selective into 2026, favouring liquidity-driven convergence and balance-sheet normalisation, while extreme Nordic dislocations persist as high-dispersion, structurally constrained trades.


Liquid Universe of European Ordinary and Preferred Shares: January '26 Report

<ul>
<li>2025 delivered dispersion without repricing: median dual-class spreads remained stable while cross-sectional dispersion widened, driven by a small number of structural outliers.</li>
<li>Liquidity and structure dominated outcomes: convergence worked episodically where economics were identical, while ownership concentration and borrow constraints overwhelmed valuation in select names.</li>
<li>Opportunities persist into 2026: tradable convergence remains viable in liquid pairs, while structural anomalies continue to define dispersion risk rather than governance fundamentals.</li>

2025 in Review: Liquid Universe of European Ordinary and Preferred Shares

<ul>
<li>December spreads were technically noisy but structurally neutral: median unchanged, dispersion high, with year-end flows interrupting—but not invalidating—ongoing convergence across Europe’s dual-class universe.</li>
<li>Marginal voting premia continue to erode where control is entrenched: Henkel, Grifols and Roche show further compression as governance risk fades and incremental voting rights lose economic relevance.</li>
<li>Nordic anomalies remain unresolved: Handelsbanken’s &gt;70% premium and SSAB’s anchored discount continue to reflect flow and structural frictions rather than voting economics, offering the clearest dispersion opportunities into 2026.</li>
