Common questions

Can we create a new share class?
Yes, subject to the articles and shareholder approval; different classes can carry distinct voting, dividend and capital rights.
What about employee shares?
Tax-advantaged schemes such as EMI need care with valuations and eligibility, and are usually run with an accountant alongside your solicitor.
