Affiliate

Affiliate is a foreign operation, formed as either a branch or a foreign-incorporated subsidiary. If a firm is owned between 20% and 49% by a parent, it is an affiliate.


 

Affiliate is a relationship between two companies when one company owns substantial interest, but less than a majority of the voting stock of another company, or when two companies are both subsidiaries of a third company.
