Shares and Shareholders Explained
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

When forming a company, you’ll have to familiarise yourself with your shareholding company’s key terms and definitions, including “shares” and “shareholders” and what these terms mean for your business.

In order to understand the duties and responsibilities of a shareholder, it’s important to recognise just what those shares are with simple examples of their purpose in a shareholding company.

What Are Shares?

Shares are a part or “portion” of a company that is limited by shares and is simply a divided-up unit of the value of a company (each share is a specific percentage of the entire business). The shares owned by individuals of a shareholding company are called “shareholders” or “members” (more on “shareholders” later).

How much of a company is owned or controlled by a member is reflected in the number of shares that the member holds. Typically, shareholders receive a percentage of trading profits in relation to their ownership percentage.

Shares have both a market and nominal value — the difference between each is known as a “premium”.

This sum is the reflection of how much a member would legally need to pay towards company debts or when the company suffers a winding up order. Therefore, the “limited liability” of a company’s owners is reflected in the nominal value.

  • Market value

A share’s market value is simply the amount it is worth at the point of being sold. This figure will invariably differ from the nominal value.
