anteiliger

Anteiliger is a German term used primarily in finance and law to denote a person or entity that holds a share or apportioned interest in something, such as property, capital, or profits. The word is formed from Anteil (share, portion) and the suffix -iger, which indicates a person associated with or characterized by the base word. In modern usage, anteiliger is comparatively uncommon; more common alternatives for the same idea are Anteilseigner (shareholder) or Anteilsinhaber (beneficial owner).

In practical terms, an anteiliger has rights and duties proportional to their share. This can include participation in profits, bearing a corresponding portion of losses, and, in some contexts, voting or decision-making rights aligned with the size of the stake. The concept is typically described in contractual or corporate documents using precise terms such as Anteil, Anteilseigner, or Beteiligung, to avoid ambiguity. The adjective anteilig or the adverb anteilig means proportionally or pro rata and is used to describe distributions or allocations rather than to name a person.

Differences from related terms are notable. Anteilig generally refers to proportional allocation (pro rata), while Anteilsinhaber or Anteilseigner specifies a person who owns a share. Miteigentümer describes co-ownership of physical property with a defined ownership share. The choice of term often depends on legal context and jurisdiction, with anteiliger serving as a more generic or less common way to describe a holder of a share.
