Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Liliana Galiano

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

I think you are absolutely right, I just wanted to confirm it, thank you
Evans (X) Mar 19, 2010:
Claudia I don't see why "share" wouldn't work in a more informal context. A "percentage share" is a percentage share whether it is formalised or not, I would have thought.

for the whole phrase you would say "hold a percentage share in a company"
Note from asker:
it looks as if this was a fairly informal and not fully disclosed arrangement, in exchange for some preferential treatment, so it wasn't an "investment" in the formal sense, I think your option fits the bill. What is your opinion?

Stake

Hold a stake in a company - for a given percentage.
Note from asker:
thank you for your answer, a stake doesn't necessarily mean holding stocks right? I' have the impression that the company mentioned doesn't have shares
