Is there a list anywhere of British companies where there are major US shareholders? I know Boots is owned by Walgreen and ASDA was /is owned by Walmart. This information would be useful in boycotting US interests.

Yes, there is a published work from Dunn & Bradstreet books, but it costs over 140 quid a blast....

Does this help at all
Its not the best list, most are fairly obvious, hopefully someone has another link that includes more unexpected US owned firms

Strangely #BootsTheChemist isnt on the list despite being owned by Sycamore Partners

Which US brands can I boycott in protest against Trump?

It appears that the US brand boycott is gathering pace as more and more people take notice of Trump aggressive foreign policy decisions.
