SHAREHOLDERS FUNDS
31 May 2016 By PDSNETThe money which shareholders have invested in a company - as opposed to third parties like banks. These funds are derived from the sale of shares to the public, plus the accumulation of retained income over the years. Shareholders' funds should always be more than the company's total debt, including its creditors book - otherwise outsiders have more money in the business than the shareholders.
