| Description | E.J. & J. Pearson issued several Debenture Certificates on 30th November 1898. When a company issues debentures, the people buying them are lending money to the Company, rather than buying shares in it. This is then paid back by the Company at a fixed rate of annual interest. Debentures were a popular way of raising money for Limited Companies, and E.J. & J. Pearson became a private limited company in 1898. |
