zero-coupon shares Explanation: There are a few Google hits for "zero-coupon shares" (by analogy with the more common "zero-coupon bond"), i.e. shares of an investment trust that are repaid at maturity at a fixed price without ongoing dividend payments. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 Min.

(2006-10-26 05:26:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- According to your note, these "couponlose Titel" are not shares but certificates for shares. Therefore I suggest "zero-coupon certificates" or, more general, "zero-coupon securities". |

share certificates without coupons Explanation: I dont' think that there are no dividend payments but it is rather a question of form of the shares. Normally a coupon is attached to shares in physical form (see link) but not in the case of these share certificates. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effektive_Stücke In this case, dividend payments are made on the basis of the entries in the shareholder register. See link under "Couponsbogen" (this is a term only used in Switzerland) http://www.rba.ch/webmodule/tools/glossar/glossar/sites/doc.... An example can be found in the statutes of Helvetia in Article 4 (German and English version) http://www.helvetia.com/gr-statuten.pdf http://www.helvetia.com/en/statuten_e_7-05.pdf |
