Can a shareholder be a stakeholder?

Yes, a shareholder can be a stakeholder. Shareholders are individuals or entities that own shares in a company, giving them a financial interest in its performance. Stakeholders, on the other hand, encompass a broader group that includes anyone affected by the company's actions, such as employees, customers, suppliers, and the community. Therefore, while all shareholders are stakeholders due to their investment, not all stakeholders are shareholders.
