German term or phrase: Feststellung
Hi,

Does this mean approval, as in "approval of the annual financial statements by the AGM/shareholders' meeting"?

Somehow some of the usual translations like "establishment" don't seem to fly in this particular case, or do they?

DECH:
Erteilung und Entzug der Vertretungsbefugnis (Art. 718 OR).
Der Verwaltungsrat kann die Vorbereitung und die Ausführung seiner Beschlüsse oder die Überwachung von Geschäften Ausschüssen oder einzelnen Mitgliedern zuweisen.
Er hat für eine angemessene Berichterstattung an seine Mitglieder zu sorgen (Art. 716a OR).
Art. 21
Der Verwaltungsrat hat überdies unter anderem folgende Obliegenheiten:
1.
Beschlussfassung über die nachträgliche Leistung von Einlagen auf nicht voll liberierten Aktien mit entsprechender Statutenänderung, wobei zur damit verbundenen Statutenänderung kein Anwesenheitsquorum vorgeschrieben ist (Art. 716a Abs. 2 OR);
2.
Beschlussfassung zur ***Feststellung*** von Kapitalerhöhungen mit entsprechender Statutenänderung, wobei zur damit verbundenen Statutenänderung kein Anwesenheitsquorum vorgeschrieben ist (Art. 716a Abs. 2 OR);

British English would be preferable. However, this is not essential.

From back when I used to work in financial market translation every other day, I think this is a bit closer to Non-PRO than to PRO level.

Cheers,
