The short answer

Vereniging Aegon Americas (f/k/a Vereniging Aegon) filed a Schedule 13D/A on Oct 16, 2026, reporting 268,514,288 shares, or 18.43% of the class of Aegon (AEG). The filing records ownership, not a share purchase date. Other public information includes fund 13F filings, short-interest data, press headlines and Aegon’s recent share-price movement.

What did Vereniging Aegon Americas report?

The SEC Schedule 13D identifies Vereniging Aegon Americas (f/k/a Vereniging Aegon) as the filer. The Schedule 13D/A, filed on Oct 16, 2026, reports 268,514,288 shares, 18.43% of the class of Aegon (AEG).

This is an amended ownership filing. The share count and percentage are what the filing reports; the fact pack does not give a date on which the shares were acquired.

What do fund filings show about Aegon positions?

Fund 13F filings recorded in the 90 days to Oct 16, 2026 show 1 new or larger position and 0 smaller or closed positions in Aegon. These counts describe fund filings in that period, not transactions by Vereniging Aegon Americas.

For the quarter ended Jun 30, 2026, Bridgewater Associates increased its position by 113,412 shares, and Dynasty Wealth Management, LLC increased its position by 10,232 shares. Todd Asset Management LLC sold out, while Dodge & Cox reduced its position by 5,921,325 shares.

A 13F is a quarter-end snapshot with no trade date. The reported position changes therefore do not establish when the underlying trades occurred.

What short-interest data is on record for AEG?

FINRA short interest for AEG on the settlement date of Sep 30, 2026 was 4,845,750 shares, up 44.47% on the previous report. The figure was about 1.06 days of average volume.

This is short-interest information for the stated settlement date. It is separate from the ownership reported in the Schedule 13D/A.

What happened around the filing date?

Aegon closed at $8.27 on Oct 15, 2026, the last session on or before the filing date. From Sep 15, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026, the close moved from $9.06 to $8.27, a change of −8.7%. The price movement is context and does not explain the filing.

Press coverage listed by Finnhub included “The Dealmaking 3: DoorDash & Australian Open, AEG & NFL/AWS” from Yahoo, dated Oct 16, 2026; “Aegon completes exchange of all Common Shares B for common stock” from Yahoo, dated Oct 15, 2026; and “Aegon: Unlocking Value Through Simplification And Shareholder Returns” from SeekingAlpha, dated Oct 14, 2026. These are headlines listed as published by the outlets; OQRO has not checked them and does not summarize the articles.

More public information about the company is collected on Aegon on OQRO.

What this does not tell you?

A Schedule 13D or 13G is an ownership filing, not a trade, and does not say when shares were bought. The filing does not explain Aegon’s share-price moves; other news can move a price. The share-price figures here are listed as context only.

The 13F information is a quarter-end snapshot with no trade date. The cited headlines are listed as published by the outlets, and OQRO has not checked them or summarized the articles. This describes public filings and is not investment advice.
