Theoretically ownership of 51 per cent of a company's voting stock is necessary to exercise control. In practice - and this is particularly true in the case of a large corporation - effective control sometimes can be exerted through ownership, individually or by a group acting in concert, of less than 50 per cent.

DEF

Le fait d'exercer une influence déterminante. Cela signifie, en théorie, détenir 51 % des actions d'une société comportant droit de vote. En pratique toutefois, et ceci est particulièrement vrai dans le cas des grandes sociétés, une personne ou un groupe de personnes agissant de concert peut exercer un tel contrôle avec moins de 50 % des actions.
