David Tomson: Liz, who owns Transworld?

Liz Shepherd: I do.

DT: You? I don't believe you.

LS: Well, I own a bit of it. Transworld is a public limited company - that's what plc in the name stands for - and that means that anyone can buy shares in the company.

DT: And if you own shares, you own a bit of the company?

LS: That's right.

DT: Do all the shareholders work for the company?

LS: No. Most people invest in public companies to make a profit. It's like putting money in a bank deposit account where you earn interest.

DT: Do you earn interest on shares then?

LS: In a way Except that the money you earn from

shares is called a dividend

dt: If you own a bit of the company, why are you

an accounts clerk? Why aren't you the branch

manager?
LS: Because it's a very big company and other

people own more shares than I do.
DT: So if I bought more shares than you, I could

have your job?

LS: You'd have to buy an awful lot of shares if you wanted to say which job you wanted. If you

bought more than 50% of the shares, you'd control the company. Then you could do anything you wanted.

DT: Hmm. I could be the managing director.

LS: Before you get too excited... Have you got

fifty thousand pounds or so?'"
DT: No. Why?

LS: Because that's what a controlling interest in

Transworld would cost you.
