weighted vote
Proportional voting power
A weighted vote is a voting system where some votes count more than others based on predetermined criteria.
Shareholders vote in proportion to shares owned; larger EU member states carry more votes than smaller ones.
The weighting reflects unequal stakes or representation: Each board member's weighted vote corresponds to their investment percentage.
