Check minority

With Check minority designates one the possibility of a minority, to prevent during tunings a certain resolution. Check minorities develop there, where qualified majorities are required.

So is for example in German law governing share transactions for certain General meeting resolutions a 75%-ige Controlling interest necessarily, u. A. for those Liquidation one Enterprise (§ 262 AktG) and for one Amendment of the by-laws (§ 179 AktG). In this case one speaks of a check minority, if a group possesses more as 25% and the less than 50% of the shares.

A further example are the check minorities of the planned European Union condition for tunings in European Union Council of Ministers. There resolutions can by more than 45% of the states and/or. by at least four states, the more than 35% of the population represent, are prevented.
