High-Quality Guidance For Share Certificates In Bangladesh
If you own shares in a company in Bangladesh, you will be handed a share certificate as proof of ownership. All shareholders receive share certificates from the corporation. The number of shares issued by the corporation and the date they were issued will be listed on a share certificate. Share certificates can only be issued by private limited companies. If a company is publicly listed, electronic share certificates will be issued and transferred to the CDP account of the shareholder.
In Bangladesh, share certificates are issued by the Company Secretary. The Company Secretary is in charge of the company’s compliance in all aspects. Each certificate has a unique number that is kept in the records of the registrar or members. The certifications must also be signed by two directors. If a company only has one director, both the director and the Company Secretary must sign the certificate.
