BUYING AND SELLING AIR LIQUIDE SHARES

There are different stock market orders for buying and selling shares.

WHERE CAN I BUY OR SELL AIR LIQUIDE SHARES?

  • With a financial institution: if you have a securities account or a Share Savings Plan (“PEA” in French).

  • With Air Liquide, by holding direct registered shares: the brokerage rate is 0.10% before tax for orders placed via your Shareholder Portal and 0.15% before tax for orders placed via other channels (phone, contact form, mail), with no minimum fee.

There are several ways to buy or sell shares: find below the three most frequent methods. For your information, buying or selling shares corresponds to placing a stock market order.

THE THREE MOST FREQUENT STOCK MARKET ORDERS

Market price Limit price Best price
Indication of a limit price:
No Yes No

Market price

The order…

Market price

...has priority over other order types.

Limit price

...is executed only if the share price reaches the limit price:

  • when buying, share price equal to or below the limit;

  • when selling, share price equal to or above the limit. It is therefore possible that it will not be executed or will not be fully executed.

Best price

…is executed at the best available price when it arrives on the market, whether buying or selling.

Market price

Execution of the order…

Market price

...is total and immediate when the order arrives on the market.

Limit price

…can be partial if the quantity of marketable securities is not available at the set limit price.

Best price

...can be partial if the quantity of marketable securities is not available at this best price.

GOOD TO KNOW

  • If your limit price or best price order is partially executed, additional charges may be added since there will be a series of partially executed orders.
  • If a best price order is partially executed, the rest of the order will no longer be executed at the best price but at the limit of the first partial execution, which becomes the limit price.
