Welcome to our Share Plan Account information hub
What is the Share Plan Account?
The Share Plan Account (SPA) is a special nominee share account that has been set up to hold shares that you may receive from Shell employee share plans.
It allows you to hold your shares safely and securely without the need to set up your own brokerage account. There is no charge for the account and you can continue to use it if you leave Shell.
How will dividends be treated?
Dividends will be automatically reinvested into Shell shares in your SPA each time a dividend is paid.
Selling and transferring
You can easily sell your Shell shares or transfer them to a broker of your choice from the SPA. Please note that transaction fees apply to share sales, but not to transfers.
Shareholder rights
As a shareholder you will have the opportunity to vote online at the Annual General Meeting each year.
Please note that in some countries, local regulations do not allow shares to be held in a SPA and/or for dividends to be allocated as shares.
