When you think of issuing shares through a share issue (which you often hear in the economic news), you quickly think of large companies that need money to grow and that are located on the Amsterdam stock exchange. The question is whether you can do this as a small business. As a VOF or sole proprietorship, you can also issue shares in order to generate money if this is not possible at the bank.

What are shares

Companies listed on the stock exchange can issue shares through a share issue. As a result, they sell the shares at a price that investors can buy. The money earned by this means can be used by the company to pay bills. This can be seen as a buffer to repay loans or to pay off other expenses. In fact, you could speak of a loan that is sold in small pieces on the stock exchange. As demand for a certain share increases, the value also increases. If bad messages come out, the price will fall. Investors thus take a gamble and receive an annual amount in the form of dividends. This is in short the operation of shares in, for example, a BV or NV that are listed on the stock exchange.

Issue shares through your sole proprietor or vOF

For example, you've been to the bank to get a new loan for your company. In these harsh times, the bank will not do this soon.

@Henkjan de Krijger KLopt helemaal. Dit kan wel een oplossing zien als voor een lening van de bank. De aandelen kan je ook weer terug kopen en is het in feite een lening. In de afspraken kan je vast laten leggen dat er geen zeggeschap is. Ook kan je als... Show more
