What's the difference between publicly- and privately-held companies?
Privately-held companies are - no surprise here - privately held. This means that, in most cases, the company is owned by the company's founders, management or a group of private investors. A public company, on the other hand, is a company that has sold a portion of itself to the public via an initial public offering of some of its stock, meaning shareholders have claim to part of the company's assets and profits.

offentlig eid selskap

Evt. bare offentlig selskap. Trenger ikke være verken statsselskap eller børsnotert.
Peer comment(s):

disagree Leif Henriksen : Det trekker svært mye i retning av et selskap eid av 'det offentlige', altså stat, fylker og kommuner.
