Shareholders in the United Kingdom are people and organisations who buy shares in UK companies. In large companies, such as those on the FTSE100, shareholders are overwhelmingly large institutional investors, such as pension funds, insurance companies, mutual funds or similar foreign organisations. UK shareholders have the most favourable set of rights in the world in their ability to control directors of corporations. UK company law gives shareholders the ability to, *remove the board of directors with a simple majority of votes *change the company constitution with a three quarter vote (unless a higher figure is in the constitution) *wind up (i.e. liquidate) the company with a three quarter vote *veto any sale of a significant percentage of company assets *veto by a majority any restriction on ability to freely trade their shares, such as a poison pill Shareholders also owe one another duties, and owe duties under the Stewardship Code to exercise their voting power. ==Types of shareholder== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shareholders in the United Kingdom」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
