Preference Share

Description:

A preference share refers to a type of share or stock that gives its holders preferential rights and privileges over other shareholders. These shares usually have a fixed dividend rate and are paid out before common shareholders receive any dividends. Preference shares offer investors a higher claim on assets and earnings and are considered less risky compared to common shares.

Sample Sentences:

  • Investors who hold preference shares in the company are entitled to receive a fixed annual dividend of 6%.
  • Preference share owners have the advantage of receiving their payments before common shareholders in case of company liquidation.
  • The board of directors decided to issue more preference shares in order to raise additional capital for expansion.
