Access + $$$ + Control
Through ownership stakes (equity stakes), Delta gains control and access to tighter coordination. Equity can mean a seat on the board of directors, allowing for influence into how the partner runs its business. Equity stakes are often combined with joint ventures for sharing revenue. Visit the Scope Scorecard page to review ownership stakes.
There is a potential for income as a shareholder and if this income is realized, it has to be reported, and would be available for profit sharing payout.
