First Merchants Corporation (FRME) Institutional Ownership

What the institutions did with FRME last quarter, from their 13F filings. Counting managers rather than shares is the point: a single index fund adding to a position tells you far less than four hundred separate managers all deciding to. Positions as reported for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

13F filings are due 45 days after quarter end and cover long positions in U.S.-listed equities only, so this is a lagged and partial picture: shorts, bonds and foreign listings never appear. Options positions are excluded here rather than folded into the share counts. Political ownership is coming.
