Countries establish colonies so people don't "own" them. If anyone felt like they were the owner it would be the King of that country. Colonies are extensions of that country.
A colony in which an owner or a group of owners appoints the governor is called a proprietary colony. In this system, the owners, or proprietors, had significant control over the colony's governance and land distribution. Examples of proprietary colonies include Pennsylvania and Maryland in colonial America.

There is no owner of a colony. Though to make the New World possible many people held Stocks back in the New World. Hope this helps!
