In a stock corporation, a capital measure is a measure that changes the capital and voting rights of the shareholders. It is normally proposed by the company's management body (Executive Board, Board of Directors) and authorized by the shareholders. This is either a change in the share capital, a change in the share and voting rights structure or another process affecting the shareholders' capital shares.
