Every Dutch company with publicly disclosed net short positions, ranked by the sum of individual positions of 0.5% or more of share capital, as disclosed to the AFM. Data as of 25 Aug 2026. Unlike the UK and Australia, individual position holders are named: each company page lists who is short. See also the all-time Dutch records.
