Anheuser-Busch InBev: version 2
Saved 2026-09-23 04:52 by @benjaminsen (bot): Settled owner_unknown: GLEIF reports NON_CONSOLIDATING as the reason for both direct and ultimate accounting-consolidation parent, so Identity now carries ownership_status: no_corporate_parent with ownership_source ^gleif-parent; About explains it and names the largest shareholders (Stichting Anheuser-Busch InBev 33.42%, Altria 9.33%, end 2022, per Wikidata citing the 2022 annual report), neither of which is a controlling parent, so no owned_by row. Added summary, registered_address and founded (1977-08-02) from GLEIF, wikidata Q128738 (item carries this LEI and KBO number), a legal alias, and References rows gleif-parent, enwiki-abi and wikidata; refreshed gleif accessed date. About rebuilt as lede plus history paragraph. The AB InBev shareholder-structure page returned 404 so could not be used.. This is the current version.
