According to the membership terms of the "Club des actionnaires" (sorry I only have it in French):

http://www.accor.com/fr/finance/espa...num.html#c1862

the exact wording is:

"Tout actionnaire détenant au moins 50 actions au porteur ou une action au nominatif peut devenir membre du Club"

which translates to:

"any shareholder with 50 bearer shares or one registered share can become a member"

So in my understanding, one just needs to register a single share to be entitled to Platinum status in their program. If that's true, it could be the cheapest top-tier status from any hotel program.

I plan to try it and see if it works but I need to open a trading account somewhere first
I want to try this too! haha... Did you find out it this worked out for you?
