Shares
1. What is a share?
A share is part ownership in the company. As a shareholder, you are one of the owners of the company and the number of shares you hold is a measure of how much of the company you own.
Shareholders, also called 'members', can vote on major decisions of the company such as those taken at the Annual General Meeting (AGM).
2. How much are my shares worth?
If you set up an online shareholder service, you will usually be able to see the indicative value of shares based on a recent share price. It is also possible to check share prices on Teletext and there are a number of internet services with this information.
3. How do I sell my shares?
You can sell your shares through a stockbroker. The rates of commission charged are determined by the Regulatory Bodies SEC and the NSE.
