A form of non-controlling interest (NCI) that involves active participation by the holders in an entity’s management and decision making. In other words, it refers to a minority stake held by certain shareholders who actively play a role in directing an entity’s management and decision-making process. Active non-controlling shareholders may be assigned a seat on the entity’s board of directors (BOD) or may be involved, to a certain extent, in specific areas or aspects of its activities or operations.
This is opposite to passive non-controlling interest, where minority stakeholders do not actively participate in management or decision-making.
