Sharebroking is the Australian and New Zealand term for the profession of buying and selling shares on behalf of clients — what Americans and British would call stockbroking. A sharebroker works on the exchange, takes commissions, and advises clients on trades. The word is part of broader Antipodean financial vocabulary that favors 'shares' over 'stocks,' and 'sharebroking' over 'stockbroking.' It's a formal business term that occasionally drifts into casual conversation when Australians talk about their investments.
