Subscribed Capital

The nominal share capital subscribed for by members.

◈Definition

Subscribed capital is distinct from authorised, issued and paid-up capital. Amounts agreed to be subscribed and amounts credited as paid need not be identical. Inspect the company’s actual share and allotment documents; do not infer the prevalence of partly paid shares or the cash received from the label alone.
