What is Arsenal Fanshare?
It is a scheme that will allow ordinary fans to invest in Arsenal shares. At present, shares trade for around £10,000 each, but
Arsenal Fanshare will allow supporters to purchase a fraction of a share and so boost their overall representation.
Fans can pay as little as £10 a month rising up to £12,000 a year towards the scheme. When Arsenal Fanshare needs to purchase a share its nominated broker will do this on the scheme’s behalf on the open market. At any time, each fan can sell back their stake, take a break from making any payments or increase their investment.
What is the purpose of the scheme?
To provide genuine fan ownership and influence in the running of Arsenal as a means of safeguarding the club’s values.
Who runs Arsenal Fanshare?
The Arsenal Fanshare has been established by the Arsenal Supporters’ Trust as part of its objective to widen supporter ownership, representation and influence. The Arsenal Fanshare Society Board includes former cabinet minister Jim Knight.
What power will fans actually have to influence decisions?
The influence will depend on the number of people who join the scheme, but Arsenal are already one of the last major clubs in England to have supporters directly involved in their ownership structure. Arsenal Fanshare will be able to use the shares to vote on all key decisions at the club’s annual general meeting.
Could fans ever own Arsenal?
It is theoretically possible, but highly unlikely and not the objective of the scheme. Arsenal is valued at around £600 million and one of the key aims of Arsenal Fanshare is to maintain plurality of ownership.
