Costain Group PLC announced a change in major holdings due to a recent acquisition of voting rights by OP Fund Management Ltd, which now holds a 3.000746% stake in the company. This change was triggered by Costain’s share buyback program, which reduced the total number of shares, thus affecting the threshold for notification of major holdings. OP Fund Management Ltd manages its voting rights independently from its parent company, indicating a strategic investment move that could influence Costain’s shareholder dynamics.
