Al Warda files 13F showing $147.5 million in IBIT shares
The June quarter Form 13F identifies Al Warda Investments RSC Ltd as the reporting manager and records a single position in IBIT. Third-party portfolio parsers corroborate the share count and valuation for the June 30 snapshot.
Form 13F reports are backward looking and reflect long positions in U.S.-listed securities at quarter end. They do not capture derivatives, cash or holdings outside the Section 13F security list, and they are subject to changes after the reporting date.
The filing names Abu Dhabi Investment Council as the manager for the holding. ADIC became part of Mubadala in 2018 following an Abu Dhabi law that reorganised the sovereign investment entities under a single group.
This structure means Al Warda’s IBIT position sits within the Mubadala umbrella, although governance and portfolio decisions are managed through the relevant internal mandates.
Mubadala’s Q2 13F lists IBIT position after Q1 increase
Mubadala Investment Company separately reported 8,726,972 IBIT shares in its March 31, 2025 quarter filing, up from 8,235,533 at year end 2024. The value disclosed for the March quarter was approximately $408.5 million, based on the filing’s table.
On August 14, 2025, Mubadala submitted its June 30, 2025 quarter Form 13F. Services that parse the filing indicate a June 30 market value for IBIT near $534 million, reflecting price movements over the quarter.
The IBIT positions represent a modest allocation relative to Mubadala’s overall asset base, yet they place an Abu Dhabi sovereign investor among the larger disclosed institutional holders of spot Bitcoin exposure via U.S. ETFs.
Reuters’ review of first-quarter filings showed Mubadala increasing its IBIT stake when many hedge funds trimmed exposure, highlighting the differences between sovereign and hedge fund positioning in the early stages of the spot ETF market.
For market participants, two points are operationally important. First, the Al Warda disclosure clarifies the appearance of an additional Abu Dhabi-linked holder of IBIT, with the reporting line situated under ADIC inside the Mubadala group.
Second, the 13F data are point-in-time signals. They confirm ownership on the last day of the quarter and may not capture subsequent rebalancing. Investors typically compare share counts quarter over quarter, rather than nominal values, to distinguish allocation changes from price effects.
At the time of this press, Bitcoin is trading at $118,819.00, having declined by $3,106.00 (‑2.55%) from the previous closing price today, after reaching an intraday high of $121,925.00 and dropping to a low of $117,449.00.
