RE:Sprott and up coming vote ?.. Here's some food for thought. ES can be good for Sokoman but he can influence decisions that may be beneficial or detrimental to other minority shareholders. You have to decide if his power can have benefit for all.
- A controlling interest is when a shareholder holds a majority of a company's voting stock.
- A shareholder does not have to have majority ownership in a company to have a controlling interest as long as they own a significant portion of its voting shares.
- Having a controlling interest provides a shareholder with significant power and influence within a company.
- A controlling interest allows the shareholder to veto or overturn decisions made by existing board members.
- Ownership of operational and strategic decision-making processes are given to a shareholder with a controlling interest.
- A controlling interest grants an investor, or investors, leverage to increase their shareholding stake in a company in a merger or acquisition
