Share Products

Share Products defines each class of share the SACCO offers, such as ordinary, preference and deferred, setting the par value, premium handling, holding limits, dividend treatment and redemption rules. The product chosen on a subscription drives valuation and the controls enforced throughout the lifecycle. Maintaining products correctly is the foundation for accurate capital accounting.
