Issuer

An issuer is the company or organization that issues shares or other securities to investors.

What is an issuer?

An issuer (Swedish: emittent) is the company or organization that issues securities, such as shares, warrants or bonds. When a limited company carries out a share issue, the company is the issuer of the new shares..

 

The issuer and the share ledger

A limited company that issues shares is also responsible for entering the new owners in the share ledger. This applies to a new share issue and to shares subscribed through options or convertibles. An up-to-date share ledger makes it clear which shares have been issued and to whom.
