CRH Completes LSE Delisting

Key Terms

preference shares financial

Preference shares are a type of company stock that pays owners a fixed or regularly prioritized payout, similar to receiving steady interest from a savings account, while still representing ownership. They usually get paid dividends before regular (common) shareholders and have priority if the company distributes assets, but often carry limited voting rights and less upside if the company’s value soars. Investors care because preference shares trade off growth potential for steadier income and greater safety in payouts.
