Описание: Preference Shares: The Bridge Between Debt and Equity
In this video, we break down the true nature of preference shares — hybrid instruments that combine the characteristics of both debt and equity.
You’ll learn how IAS 32 classifies them, the difference between Debt-type and Equity-type preference shares, and why they’ve become a popular financing tool in Bangladesh’s financial market.

We also explore their tax benefits, regulatory compliance under BSEC, and how banks manage risk-weighted assets (RWA) for each type.
