In Malaysia, minority shareholders of public listed companies (PLCs) comprise individuals, organisations, and institutions that own a non-majority voting power stake.

A minority shareholder is not necessarily a retail shareholder who comprises the ‘moms and pops’. Why, even an institutional shareholder holding a minority stake is technically a minority shareholder.

The following are the three fundamental rights of all shareholders:

• Right to seek information
• Right to raise and present views
• Right to seek redress
