Poll : more options for our subsidary

Post by paulwoman »

Normally, one share gives you one vote in shareholder meetings

When you buy the shares of a company, you can of course buy the whole company....

However, the game is set up in such a way that even if you have an absolute majority, the company issues shares and therefore your % in the company decreases and you lose control.

Similarly, subsidiaries buy competitors "without our consent", including private companies.

But this is not representative of reality.

I would like to make it more realistic:
  • That our opinion be asked when the subsidiary buys another company
  • To accept or not an increase in capital
  • Have a preferential rate in the capital increase. For example, for every 5 shares I already own, I can buy a share at $12 instead of $15

I liked your idea, but these options would only be available when you have what percentage of shares?

My suggestion, these options would only be active when we have 75% or 100% control.

If it is possible, there should be a random voting system to know what each shareholder thinks ^^

50% and one share is for me a minimum. Since we have the majority, we are sure to have the same number of votes.

In practice, given the complexity of implementation, I think 75% is a good compromise.

100% is for me too unrealistic, which is precisely the aim of the proposal.
