REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS
Registered shareholding provides you with better knowledge of our shareholders and favors direct contact.
There are two ways of holding shares:
- Pure registered shares: Your shares are registered under your name or an account held by UPTEVIA, which conserves and manages them free of charge (excluding fees relating to stock market transactions, see details below). Groupe SEB has appointed UPTEVIA to manage Groupe SEB shareholders' register (previously named "BNP PARIBAS SECURITIES SERVICES").
- Managed registered shares: Your shares are conserved and managed by your financial intermediary on your regular securities account. They are also registered in our register held by UPTEVIA. UPTEVIA does not have the capacity to update your information or operate on you account, only your bank may do. This form of holding is the only recommended in the case of a french PEA (Stock savings Plan).
