In France, there are two distinct forms of transferable securities:Â
Bearer shares
The certificates for bearer shares are held by the financial intermediary (credit or investment company) and are therefore not known by the issuing company.
Nominative shares
Two possible types:
administered shares: the shares are listed in the accounts of the issuing company, but are retained and managed by the shareholders’ financial intermediary;
pure shares: the shares are listed directly and solely in the accounts of the issuing company, which allows it to provide a personalised service.
As a holder of administered or pure nominative shares, you are entitled to the following benefits:
As we recognise you as a shareholder, the notice of meeting will be sent directly to you, and you will therefore not have to accomplish any particular formalities.
If you own at least 25 shares, you automatically become a member of the Shareholders’ Club and receive all the documents and information that the company publishes for its shareholders directly.
Holders of pure nominative shares are entitled to another benefit. You benefit from free custody fees and attractive broking fees (0.3% ex.  VAT of the amount of the transaction, with a €10 minimum, and no bank commissions).
