Qualifying Share

Qualifying Share - Qualifying share is the share acquired by an individual from an employee. If the company is your employer, the share available from the employee's share is ordinary shares. After the share acquisition has gone through you do not hold a legal interest of more than 5% of the shares. In turn the individual is not in a position to cast or control the casting of more than five percent of the votes in the company involved. It is the share of stock that needs to be in possession in order for someone to be an issuer of that company's stock.
