OVERVIEW

Are you curious about how companies can sell shares to the public? This interactive video explores the world of public limited companies (PLCs) and their unique ownership structure. We'll delve into the concept of shares and how PLCs are usually listed on the London Stock Exchange, allowing the public to become part owners of the company and have a say in its operations.

We'll take a closer look at Vantage Entertainment LTD, a private limited company considering converting into a public limited company by offering shares to the general public through a process called 'floatation'. We'll discuss the advantages and disadvantages of making this transition, including the limited liability shareholders have for any debts against the business and the possibility of easier finance-raising opportunities.

By the end of this video, you'll have a solid understanding of what public limited companies are, and how they differ from private limited companies. Get ready to discover the world of shares, flotation and the stock market!
