Why company limited by guarantee does not have share capital?

In a company limited by shares, each shareholder's loss in the event of the company being wound up is limited to the value of his/her shareholding. In a company limited by guarantee, the amount of loss is limited to the (usually nominal) amount that the members guarantee to pay (as stated in the company's Memorandum of Association). Since the guarantee already limits the amount of the members' liability, it is not necessary to further limit it according to the number of shares that the member holds. Companies limited by guarantee are also most often used for clubs, associations, etc. where all member votes count as equal and not according to the number of shares held.
