Equity.
Ordinary shares are units of equity which have no special rights or powers.
Similar to common stock.
By far the most widespread form of equity shareholding.
Ordinary shares are the last to be paid out in a liquidation.
Rights of ordinary shareholders generally include the right to receive any dividend declared, and to vote at meetings.
Ordinary shares are also sometimes known as common shares.
