The smile you make when things make sense 😁 Do you know what a 'Share' is? Put simply, a share refers to a unit of ownership in a company. 🗣️ By purchasing shares, investors become shareholders and acquire a proportional ownership stake in the company. The ownership stake grants them certain rights, such as voting rights in major company decisions, the right to receive dividends (if the company pays them), and the right to participate in the company's growth and success. #READ our full breakdown on 'Shares' in the link below ⬇️ https://buff.ly/429pvDM

Investors new to the pre-IPO secondary market often don’t know that the same company can have at least 6 different prices simultaneously. Here’s why. Stock type matters: ** Common stock is riskier than preferred stock, and we see risk disparity being priced across all names in the secondary market. ** All equal, common stock trades at a lower price than preferred. Exact discount depends on the company and structure... read on. Transaction structure matters: ** Forward contracts are considered lower quality due to counterparty & legal risk. ** SPVs vary. They can trade at premiums when they provide access to equity otherwise buried in tough transfer restrictions. ** Direct transfers, when available, trade at premiums to the other structures. So with 2 types of stock and 3 types of transaction structures, the same company could trade at 6 different prices at the same time! Secondary market trade structures in practice: Caplight analyzed $2B of closed secondary market transactions in ~200 unique private companies over the past 18 months and found 81% of companies trade through just 1 structure. The vast majority of companies traded did so via direct transfers of stock. Curious to hear your opinion. Are you seeing more or less companies facilitate direct transfers?

Dual-class shares are a controversial issue in the field of corporate governance and contradict the one share/one vote principle. According to research by Jay R. Ritter from the University of Florida dual-class IPOs in the US increased significantly since 2015 (24%-50%) for tech IPOs compared to earlier years. For all IPOs in the US (Amex, NYSE, and NASDAQ with an offer price of at least $5.00) the dual-class share IPO percentages reached the range of 12%-33% since 2015. This leads to the question on how to price voting rights, property rights for shareholders, and the question on how to attract more retail investors? #dual_class_shares #corporate_governance #one_share_one_vote #property_rights #ipo #voting_right #retail_investor #shareholder
