Shareholders

  • Updated

Overview

This screen allows users to enter current and previous shareholders.

Shareholders are the owners of a company, through the purchase of shares. As owners of the company, shareholders are entitled to certain rights. Every company incorporated in Hong Kong must have at least one shareholder.

This screen also breaks down each shareholding by share class, so CAS 360 users are easily able to see the differences between share classes.

Shareholder Filters

The Current Shareholder Filter allows Shareholders to be sorted by Current Shareholders. Selecting this option allows the users to toggle between the current shareholder transactions view and Current Shareholders View.
