Norwegian term or phrase: flagging
This term doesn't seem to be used in English - or is it? The Norwegian Securities Trading Act reads: "§ 4-2. Flagging av erverv av større aksjeposter, rettigheter til aksjer og stemmerettigheter

" (http://www.lovdata.no/all/hl-20070629-075.html#1-1 )

and it translated as: "Section 4-2 Disclosure of acquisitions of large shareholdings, rights to shares and
voting rights."

Unless I can be convinced otherwise, I'm going for "disclosure" or similar.

Explanation:
I would guess that the Norwegian term "flagging" is borrowed from the English phrasal verb "to flag up", but I have no evidence to provide of this.
