Research and development of a Software as a Service application for unlisted SMEs which includes semiautomatic stock Exchange.

As of today, there are millions unlisted limited companies in Europe with different size and number of shareholders. In almost every country the legislation requires the company to keep a register of shareholders which at all times shows who owns shares in the company. In addition, there are imposed regulatory requirements such as the submission of shareholder register duties at the end of the year. In most cases, the company (represented by the board) must approve all share transactions that occur in the company. In this context, automated solutions are needed that both streamline and quality assure such transactions. Many unlisted limited companies, and the shareholders of such companies, want solutions / marketplaces that can increase the opportunity to buy and sell the shares (increased liquidity of the shares). STOCKHOLDER will offer all these things, and in addition, the company that uses STOCKHOLDER will have streamlined administrative routines, as well as reporting and filing functions, both internally and towards the authorities and shareholders. The application should have a low entry level, and handle the technical, economic and financial aspects related to a large number of stock companies and shareholders serving various purposes. STOCKHOLDER will be marketed in the international market, based on Norwegian and European legislation and practice. Stockholder AS is the owner of STOCKHOLDER and will be the coordinator of the project. The R&D project should be completed within 30 months.
