group ownership

Joint holding arrangement

Group ownership is possession or control shared among multiple people or entities rather than held by a single individual.

The term appears in contexts from business to psychology: a company with group ownership has several stakeholders, while group ownership of a decision means everyone involved feels responsible for it.

The team developed a sense of group ownership over the project.
