Dutch term or phrase: klimmend aandeel
"Gedurende de eerste X jaar van zijn participatie als partner, ontvangt de betrokken partner een *klimmend aandeel* dat is afgeleid van ... Y%"

This is a provision in a general partnership agreement. Is this as straighforward as an "increasing share"? For a similar question, but in the context of insurance, see: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/dutch_to_english/insurance/1303824... TIA for your feedback. Cheers, R.

Abstract
The elusive notion of brand equity is operationalized in a “share tiering” framework with a combination of multiple constructs: (1) relative barrier or brand price, (2) brand quality perceptions, (3) brand purchase loyalty, and (4) self-report future brand purchase trend. This general measurement framework for “true” brand equity when applied longitudinally permits the evaluation of markerting ROI. Recommended measures for the “share tiering” approach to brand equity measurement are illustrated using the cola category as an example. See: http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract;jsessio...

neutral  Kitty Brussaard: 'Tiered shares' means that a different dividend (i.e. percentage) is paid for each level on deposit. 'Tiered share structure' refers to a layered 'aandeelhoudersstructuur' (i.e. meerdere rechtsvormen) to prevent hostile bids or for tax benefits.

cumulative distributive share / cumulative share (of earnings)


Explanation:
The difficulty here lies in the fact that 'klimmend aandeel' is not a common investment term. Hence a low confidence level :-)

However, §705(a)(1)(C) prevents this problem by providing that a partner's basis in her partnership interest increases by her cumulative distributive share ...
http://www.bna.com/tm/insights_westin.htm

A partner’s distributive share of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit is generally determined by the partnership agreement. The distributive share is usually the same as the partner’s capital interest in the partnership or percentage of ownership in the partnership.
http://www.1065accountant.com/distributive-share.htm

payback
Usually expressed in number of years, payback is calculated as the investors' cumulative share of earnings over a period of time divided by the amount of the original investment. The length of an acceptable payback period varies from investor to investor and from project to project.

@Jarry: My tentative answer is - amongst other things - based on the fact that 'klimmend' in Dutch can be interpreted as 'toenemend' or 'cumulatief' (see reference below). Also, I've tried to find relevant examples of allocation of 'klimmende' shares in the context of partnership agreements.

-cumulatief -klimmend -omhooggaand -onvoltooid deelwoord van toenemen -oplopend -progressief -rijzend -stijgend -verheffend -zich uitbreidend -crescendo ...

disagree  xxxjarry: the term Cumulative would be the correct word for the Dutch term "cumulatief" ("preferent aandeel")
10 hrs
  -> See also my note. You may very well be right. However, since there are no direct references to the source term in Dutch and we do not know the wider context, it seems to me that my guess is as good as yours (or anyone else's) :-)
