Active managers and hedge funds: a list we maintain of about 400 well-known stock-picking firms and hedge funds, matched by SEC registration number (CIK) and checked against the filer names each quarter. Index fund managers: the large index houses, such as BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street, Geode and Northern Trust. Every other filer (banks, brokers, wealth managers, pension funds, insurers and firms not on the list) counts as another institution. A firm that files under several SEC registrations appears once for each.
