BLACKSTONE SECD LENDING FD BXSL
COMMON STOCK · Common Stock · CUSIP 09261X102
* Summed across managers. Shares that two managers' reports both contain – a subsidiary's holdings that its parent's report includes too, or a sub-adviser's in its client's – are counted once. Holder counts are more reliable. Shares outstanding: 192.4m as of 2024-05-06, from the company's own SEC filing; the percentage can still exceed 100%: lent-out shares are counted by the lender and the buyer, and some reports overlap without saying so. Implied quarter-end price ≈ $31.13. Options: 6 managers hold calls ($11.4m notional), 6 hold puts ($3.9m).

Major shareholders (over 5%)
Anyone who owns more than 5% of a class of the company's shares has to say so: on Schedule 13D if they may try to influence or control the company, on 13G if they're a passive investor, and update it as the stake changes. Each holder's latest filing, from 19 Dec 2024 on; percentages are of the share class, as the holder worked them out.
| Holder | Stake |
|---|---|
| Greenwich Venture Capital LLC 13G · passive investor filed 2025-02-14 | 8.9% |
Insider purchases and sales in Q1 2024
