What is a share register?

A share register is a official document in which is kept Who owns how many shares at what time. Anyone entered in this register as a holder of a share is presumed (until proven otherwise) to be a shareholder.

Maintaining a share register is mandatory for the limited liability company (NV), the private limited company (BV) and the cooperative society (CV). For the general partnership (VOF) and the limited partnership (CommV), it is not required by law but is common.

 

Why choose an electronic share register?

While it is still possible to use a paper share register, this choice is not always practical. Consider, for example loss of the registry, incomplete data, or difficulties in keep up-to-date of it.

An electronic share register provides a solution to these problems. The preparation of an electronic share register uses the digital application eStox.

This offers the following benefits, among others:

  • Legally conclusive: eStox is recognized as a legally conclusive alternative to a paper share register.

  • Discreet, confidential and reliable: Registration is done exclusively by professionals who ensure correct entry via a secure platform. The platform is customizable by accountants, tax advisors or notaries and consultable by the directors concerned.
  • Professional: In the event of a sale, the digital share register shows that your company is organized professionally and future-proof.
  • UBO transparent: The data to be included in the UBO register based on share ownership is sent from eStox. This allows the annual UBO obligations to be met automatically.
