1. transaction

   One's acts or deeds may be exclusively his own; his transactions involve the agency or participation of others. A transaction is something completed; a proceeding is or is viewed as something in progress; but since transaction is often used to include the steps leading to the conclusion, while proceedings may result in action, the dividing line between the two words becomes sometimes quite faint, tho transaction often emphasizes the fact of something done, or brought to a conclusion. Both transactions and proceedings are used of the records of a deliberative body, especially when published; strictly used, the two are distinguished; as, the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London give in full the papers read; the Proceedings of the American Philological Association give in full the business done, with mere abstracts of or extracts from the papers read. Compare ACT; BUSINESS.

1. Bill Ackman:

   While we believe our shareholders recognize UMG's extraordinary attributes including its attractive growth characteristics, business quality, and superb management team, we underestimated the reaction that some of our shareholders would have to the transaction's complexity and structure.

2. Andre Krause:

   Institutional investors are usually not activists, they either like a stock or they don't like it. If they don't like the stock, they divest.. so the shareholder register is currently dominated by people that actually like the transaction, i'm flying out for a roadshow over the next couple of weeks so we'll see all of the guys again (...) We'll figure out if there's scepticism or criticism.

3. Jeremy Saland:

   If it's large enough, it bolsters their case. If it's insignificant, I don't know that I'd go down that road so much, because how are you corroborating that there was this cash transaction ? it's much easier to say he leased this apartment, because you can go look at records and speak to people about who was living there. But there's going to be no record of a cash transaction. Why give Trump Organization or Donald Trump the ability to separate that out or make that an issue ? If Trump Organization's overwhelming and you have good evidence of Trump Organization, then Trump Organization's consistent with [ the ] theory [ of the company playing ] fast and loose.
