/ˈaktsi̯ənɡəˌzɛlʃaft]/ or /ɑː ɡeɪ/ (n.)
The colloquial name for an “Aktien Gesellschaft” , being a “stock corporation” — in other words, a limited liability company in Germany and certain Germanic countries, like Austria and Switzerland.
An AG is different to the similar “Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung” (GmbH) in that shareholders can stick their beaks in uninvited and tell the board of a GmbH what to do. They cannot, unless invited by the board to do so, for an AG.
