Law/Patents - Law (general) / Statuts de société (UK)
English term or phrase: Ordinary Shares
Par exemple:
"2.1 The share capital of the Company at the date of the adoption of these Articles of Association is £xxx divided into 10,000 "A" Ordinary Shares of £xxx each and 1,000 "B" Ordinary Shares of £xxx each.
2.2 The "A" Ordinary Shares and the "B" Ordinary Shares shall be separate classes of shares and shall rank pari passu in all respects, save that:-"

Je pensais qu'il s'agissait de "parts sociales" que l'on distribue entre les administrateurs ou gérants mais mes deux dictionnaires juridiques le traduisent par "Actions Ordinaires". J'ai trouvé une explication sur le site des impôts "Les versements doivent être effectués en numéraire et constituer des souscriptions au capital initial ou aux augmentations de capital de sociétés éligibles, sous la forme de titres donnant accès au capital (actions ordinaires ou de préférence) ou de parts sociales." mais je ne comprends toujours pas quel terme est le bon.
Merci d'avance pour votre aide
