Corporate law
All public companies within the European Union are required to hold at least €25,000 in capital, although many countries go above this minimum requirement.[1][2] The requirement is e.g. £50.000 in the United Kingdoms (England and Wales), of which at least 25% must be paid up (of the nominal amount and of any premium).[3]
