VerifiedVerified against the IC register, checked 4 Sept 2026.

Snapshot

By class of business

Each company is counted once, under the class its register row records. The supervisor’s own tally counts licences, so a company licensed for more than one class appears more than once there.

By ownership

  • Domestic private62 49%
  • Mutual / cooperative43 34%
  • Foreign multinational17 13%
  • State-owned / parastatal4 3%

“Cross-border groups” counts foreign multinationals and pan-regional groups; “domestically owned” counts domestic private, state-owned, mutual and captive entities. The register records the parent’s type, not its home market. How ownership is recorded
