Italian term or phrase: blocco proprietario di maggioranza
In a discussion on divergences from the "one share-one vote" principle and shareholder agreements.
The surrounding context is:
Esistono diritti di voto diversificato, diritti di voto plurimo, scatole cinesi; di fatto si può disporre ormai di almeno 15 meccanismi per creare un blocco proprietario di maggioranza (negli USA esiste nel 40% delle società).
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
