Control rights are usually divided into absolute control rights and relative control rights. Absolute controlling right means that shareholders hold more than 50% of the company's shares and have the right to decide major decisions of the company. Relative control means that shareholders hold 30% to 50% of the company's shares. Although it can't completely determine the company's decision, it can play an important role in many cases.
The significance of controlling interest is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
1. Decision-making power: The controlling shareholder has a greater voice in the shareholders' meeting and the board of directors of the company, which can have an important impact on the company's operation and management.
2. Income right: The controlling shareholder usually enjoys the priority of profit distribution of the company and can get a higher return on investment.
3. Control right: The controlling shareholder's control right over the company helps to maintain the company's stability and prevent hostile takeovers and other acts that threaten the company's development.
4. Value-added right: The controlling shareholder can realize the promotion of the company's value through the development and growth of the company, so as to obtain investment income.
It should be noted that when exercising the controlling right, the controlling shareholder needs to abide by laws and regulations and the company's articles of association, respect the rights and interests of other shareholders, and ensure the fairness, impartiality and transparency of the company's decision-making. At the same time, the controlling shareholder also needs to pay attention to the long-term development of the company, actively promote the implementation of the company's strategy and improve the company's competitiveness.
