Shareholding

Shareholding is the ownership of shares in a company. In this case the investor provides the company with equity capital and thus bears the risk of the company. In return the investor participates in the company’s results. Different from an investor, a creditor receives a fixed interest rate and therefore bears only conditionally the corporate risk. The general problem of shareholding is the evaluation of the shares. The nominal value of the company (equity on the balance sheet) does not consider the potential future profitability of the company. It is recommended to use dynamic or comparing valuation techniques in order to derive a fair evaluation of the company.
