JPMorgan Dumps Stake in Rio Tinto Amid Portfolio Rebalancing

JPMorgan Chase & Co. has ceased to be a substantial shareholder in Rio Tinto as of September 18, 2026, following a series of transactions and changes in its relevant interests across multiple JP Morgan entities.

The change reflects adjustments in positions arising from securities lending, proprietary trading, prime brokerage rehypothecation, and investment management activities. This reduction in JPMorgan's aggregate voting power in Rio Tinto signals a shift in the company's institutional ownership profile that may interest market participants tracking its shareholder base.

The notice details movements involving ordinary shares held or controlled by units including JPMorgan Chase Bank, J.P. Morgan Securities PLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, and several JPMorgan Asset Management entities. The activity spans loans of securities, collateral received, and principal trading.
