definition: Minority shareholders are shareholders of a corporation who own less than 50% of the voting rights and who individually are unable to control the corporation. Minority shareholder status is related to the proportion of voting power held by a shareholder, not by the proportion of shares held: Some share classes may have no or limited or multiple voting rights.
