PROPERTY RIGHTS OF СHAREHOLDERS

Abstract

In this paper the authors consider and study a current and important topic related to the property rights of shareholders such as: the right to a dividend, the right to pre-buy shares, the right to participate in the liquidation and bankruptcy divide, as well as the right to dispose of shares. The basic motive for the founding of a joint stock company and the ownership of its shares are exactly the property rights that the shareholder acquires, and especially the right to split the realized profit, i.e. the right to a dividend, and a significant part of the work is dedicated to this issue.
