"Bearer shares" - clarification
Please be advised that in accordance with the Polish legal system the term: "bearer shares" has a different meaning than "bearer shares" (anonymous and unregistered shares facilitating illicit actions) eliminated from the market by certain countries, e.g. in the UK (see: SBEE Act Companies: Transparency Fact Sheet (publishing.service.gov.uk). We hereby indicate that the obligatory dematerialisation of shares carried out in Poland in 2021 abolished the anonymity of all shareholders of joint-stock companies. The necessity to register bearer shares makes it possible to identify each shareholder entitled to hold shares. The division into registered and bearer shares has been upheld largely due to the legal tradition in Poland.
