Danish term

nettostyret virksomhed

Danish to English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
I know this has been asked previously here, but there were no references and I'm not sure if that answer was right.

Here's a Danish link with more information: http://www.stm.dk/publikationer/groenland/kap02001.html

Thanks in advance.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I actually went with "semi-autonomous", so if you want to enter this as a suggestion Chris, I'll award points.

I'm not suggesting it, Adrian, just providing food for thought. I have no idea what I'd do if I came across this term. Well, fudge it somehow, obvs.
Adrian MM. (X) Jan 28, 2016:
semi-autonomous @ Chris S. is that right post-2008? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/greenland/3...
Christopher Schröder Jan 28, 2016:
I've seen them called "semi-autonomous" before

Danish term (edited): (Greenland) nettostyret virksomhed

Regionally controlled, (net) balanced-budget business

- as opposed to a 'for-profit' business as per the last KudoZ answer: 'XXX er en nettostyret virksomhed, som ejes af Groenlands Hjemmestyre.'

'A balanced budget (particularly that of a government) refers to a budget in which revenues are equal to expenditures.'
Example sentence:

Ved nettostyret virksomhed forstås en Hjemmestyreejet virksomhed, som på finansloven er optaget ved en nettobevilling.

Driftsbevillingen er en nettobevilling,.... hvilket indebærer, at merindtægter i forhold til det budgetterede giver adgang til at afholde merudgifter, blot den på finansloven fastsatte nettoudgiftsbevilling ikke overskrides

Note from asker:
Thank you very much for your suggestions. I used semi-autonomous in the end.
