In the realm of business and corporate ownership, stakeholders are essential players in shaping a company’s direction and decisions. Among them, majority stakeholders and minority stakeholders hold distinct positions of influence. Understanding the difference between the two is key to grasping how control, decision-making authority, and financial interests are distributed within a company. While majority stakeholders typically hold more than 50% of a company’s shares and often control key strategic decisions, minority stakeholders hold a smaller share and may have limited voting power—but still retain important rights and protections under corporate governance laws.
