Floating capital: what it is – Dictionary of Economics

It is the part of the capital of a listed company that is in the hands of small investors, and that is therefore subject to free trading on the Stock Market (that is, the part that is not controlled by the reference shareholders, the “hard core” of the society). In principle, companies with greater free float offer minority shareholders more possibilities to participate in corporate decisions and greater possibilities of liquidity.

Origin: CNMV
