Controlling company, parent company

In the language of the ECB, an entity which, by virtue of capital links or other relationships, exercises a controlling influence over other entities (a controlling company has enough voting stock to influence the board of directors and control the management and operations of the subsidiary companies [Tochter- oder Untergesellschaften]. Occasionally, a parent company will create subsidiaries for tax and liability purposes: creating separate entities with legal and financial shields to protect it from recourse or liability). – See financial conglomerate, profit shifting, holding company, control, group, octopus, reciprocal, cross-subsidization, links, close, group of companies, horizontal, insurance holding company.
