Answer

The country of origin of one or more owners of the applicant recorded as “Withheld” two times, “Various” 47 times, “Region based” 24 times, and “Described as a funded/aggregated ownership” five times. The “Various” and “Region based” responses are used in cases where shareholders are dispersed or where there are multiple countries with small percentages.
