Qube Research & Technologies Acquires Significant Financial Position in IRES

Dublin-based Irish Residential Properties REIT Plc (IRES) has announced a significant shift in financial holdings. Qube Research & Technologies Limited, a London-based firm, has recently acquired a notable position in IRES. The acquisition, reported on November 12, 2026, concerns financial instruments, with Qube's interest in IRES reaching a threshold of 3.151% of voting rights. This change occurred on November 10, 2026.

Importantly, these voting rights stem from financial instruments rather than direct share ownership. A swap agreement is involved, enabling potential acquisition through cash settlement. This move is not linked to any controlling entity, as Qube operates independently. IRES's total available voting rights stand at 524,442,218, indicating the scale of the acquisition.
