DEF

Preference shares that are issued on the understanding that any dividends not paid in one year will be paid in a subsequent year. [Klein, Gerald. Dictionary of Banking. Pitman Publishing, 1995].

OBS

The correct French equivalent is "action" in this context because "stock" and "share" are used interchangeably as a singular noun. However, "stock" is usually a collective noun, with "actions" as its French equivalent and "shares" as its synonym.
