Ensuring the rights and equitable treatment of shareholders is crucial for maintaining investor confidence and promoting long-term corporate stability. By safeguarding shareholder voting rights and transparency, companies foster trust and accountability. This protection of both majority and minority shareholders helps prevent exploitation and encourages active, engaged ownership, ultimately driving sustainable growth and value creation.
Shareholders are encouraged to actively participate by exercising their rights. Such rights include the following, among others:
1. Participating and voting during stockholders’ meetings
2. Exercising the appraisal right on instances stated in Section 81 of the Corporation Code
3. Voting and being voted as director or officer of the Company
4. Inspecting records of all the Company’s business transactions and minutes of any meeting
5. Receiving dividends declared by the Board of Directors
6. Sharing in the distribution of the Company’s remaining assets after its dissolution and liquidation
