An unlisted public company is a public company that is not listed on any stock exchange; therefore, it may raise finance through the issue and sale of shares to the public. The jurisdictions vary in criteria for listing. However, for a public company to be registered, it should meet minimum share capital and the number of shareholders.
- Reason For Not Listing?
- Some companies do not list for a variety of reasons, including to avoid costs, not wanting public investors, or having too few shareholders.
Listed Vs Unlisted Companies
- The most significant difference between a listed company and an unlisted company is that shares of a listed company are traded on a stock exchange, while the shares of an unlisted company are not traded on a stock exchange.
