Frequently modified by adjectives that indicate the size or type of ownership: 'major shareholder' (owns a large percentage), 'minority shareholder' (owns a small percentage), 'institutional shareholder' (an organization such as a pension fund). Distinguish from 'stakeholder,' which includes anyone affected by a company (employees, community) — not just owners.
