osuusmäärän

Osuusmäärä is a Finnish noun used to refer to the amount or value of a share or stake in a cooperative, company, or other collective venture. It is a compound of osuus (share, portion, participation) and määrä (amount), and its genitive form is osuusmäärän. The concept is most often encountered in formal documents, financial reports, and discussions of ownership or capital structure.

In practice, osuusmäärä can denote the monetary value attached to an individual member’s stake. In a cooperative (osuuskunta), a member’s osuus represents their portion of the cooperative’s capital and, indirectly, their rights to profits and voting power. In a corporate or investment context, the term may be used to describe the nominal or registered value of a share or the size of a participant’s capital contribution. The exact meaning and how it affects rights and responsibilities depend on the organizational rules and the jurisdiction.

The term is not as common in everyday language as more specific terms such as osuus, osuusmaksu, or osake/osakepääoma, but it appears in legal and accounting texts where precise description of ownership portions is needed. Because Finnish corporate and cooperative terminology can vary by organization, osuusmäärän meaning is best understood through the relevant statutes, articles of association, or financial statements of the entity in question.
