This comes from the same document as my previous question. I get the idea (I think) but not sure how to phrase it above all in a US context.
Many thanks to all who offer ideas.

Selected
limited private equity holding company
I'm comfortable with "private equity holding" byt "par actions" can be translated in various ways. Most of those companies in the US would be LLCs, I think, which correspond to the French société par actions simplifiée (which has all but replaced the SARL)
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer.
Comment: "I'm going for this as it sounds plausible and because lenkl's answers are generally speaking very sound.
Many thanks to all who made suggestions."
