Shareholder benefits
People own shares hoping that as the company grows their share values grow alongside. Shareholders that own shares in a company or ETF that pays their shareholders dividends, may also receive regular cash payments when the company shares profits with their owners. Shareholders are invited to attend company AGMs, vote on their future decisions and leadership, and potentially influence how a company is run. Some companies have additional benefits for shareholders - the perks of being an owner.
