A long-term relationship  [ Return towards  Sustainable Development  ]

Since its origin in 1902, Air Liquide has grown successfully because of its relationship of confidence with its individual shareholders and its institutional investors.

Individual shareholders have always been the largest group of Air Liquide shareholders. They now number 410,000 and hold 38% of the Group’s capital. This share ownership is nearly four times more than the average of the other CAC 40 groups.

In order to highlight the close and lasting relationship maintained with its shareholders, Air Liquide has officially stated its commitment in the Shareholders’ Charter. It is based on four fundamental values:

  • Demonstrating consideration and respect for all shareholders,
  • Offering return on, and increasing the value of, your investment over the long term,
  • Listening to you and keeping you informed,
  • Providing personalized services through Shareholder Services.

Becoming an Air Liquide shareholder also means backing a responsible actor that helps protect life and the environment and that shows it is commited in the human, social and societal areas.

Objective:

In the last 10 years, the growth in value of a portfolio of Air Liquide shares has been +8.1% a year, on average, including gross reinvested dividends, bonus shares and loyalty bonuses granted to registered shareholders. The Group’s objective is to follow this long-term and transparent policy of comprehensive remuneration for shareholders in order to ensure regular growth in the value of their investment.
