Spanish term or phrase: estudios de participación
Hi everyone. This term is from the job description of an investments analyst. After lots of research, the word ‘participation’ is still causing me doubt. I have the following translations so far:

Participation studies
Share studies
Ownership studies
Shareholding studies

Participación seems to mean many things. I don’t have a financial background so would like to know if
‘Participation’ studies makes sense in English?

Thanks.

Explanation:
I would not use the word "studies", I think "estudios" means "analysis"

Analysis in the singular form gets many more occurrences than "analyses"

To me, "holdings analysis" sounds as if the investment has already been made.

neutral  philgoddard: It's the job description of an investment analyst, so this would be a bit obvious.
